I was having issues with my new salt cell not producing. After much help from the knowledgeable folks on this forum I was able to figure out what the diagnostics were and what they meant. I was advised to try switching polarity. When I did that, it clicked and I started getting current to the cell. Now I don’t know what to do next or ultimately what the fact that switching the polarity made it work actually means. Should I switch the polarity back and see if it quits working again? Does this mean I have to replace the board? Is there a way to test and repair the board myself instead? Should I just leave it alone on this polarity and let it roll or will it switch back and forth on its own and cause issues?

Thanks in advance
