Circupool SJ35A Flow Switch

[Amber10100]

Hello! I am new to Salt Water Generators and I am having difficulty with my SJ35A. I had to convert the pipes to pvc so I set it up for this particular SWG but when I turned it on I get a red light by flow. I made sure all skimmer baskets were clean, there is 8 inches of straight pipe before the flow switch, and no bubbles in the cell itself. I also double checked and yes it is plugged into the control panel. I installed the flow switch with it facing the water flow rather than it pointing towards the flow because that was how the instructions had it. Does anyone know if that is correct or anything I could try to fix it? Thanks!

Brand new Circupool sj-45 shuts off after salt and cell lights turn on red

Can anyone help? I just installed a new Circupool sj45 swg and a Hayward 21” sand filter with single speed 1.5hp pump. When I turn on the swg the flow light is green, the generator light turns green and I can see the chlorine gas through the clear cell tube. It runs for maybe 30 seconds, then...

I figured it out. There is a diagram in the manual that shows the switch facing the wrong direction. I thought it was wrong and kept going back and forth on doing what I thought vs what it said but stupidly I decided to follow the manual. Thank you for your help!
