ECO8110 SWG code 91 bypass

Jun 10, 2010

Hello. This is my second year with this SWG. Just now, I get code 91. Stupid me, I added more salt before testing and now it is 3300. However, the pump still states code 91. There is no build (calcium) up; however, I still cleaned it. Then I switched oultet plugs. Still get code 91.

After some research, I watched the YouTube video Watch "INTEX SALTWATER SYSTEM LOW SALT, SERVICE LIGHT FIX! SUPER EASY!!! MIKE LEE'$ LIFE HACK$" on YouTube
INTEX SALTWATER SYSTEM LOW SALT, SERVICE LIGHT FIX! SUPER EASY!!! MIKE LEE$ LIFE HACK$ - YouTube.

So I open the box to expose the circuit board. I unscrewed the two middle wires. I connected the red and white wire to the 1st (top) and the the two blacks to the bottom. I turned the unit back on and the panel still works and still gives me code 91. However, the generator seems to be making CL, by watching the eco and the cloudy mixture being released from the cell. Did I do the wiring right? After watching the guys video, I figured the panel would quit working and just produce CL after I rewired the unit. But the panel is still on and code 91 still appears, but it seems to be making CL. Going to test the CL levels tonight to compare.

I just wanted to see if anyone else with this unit had the same similar problem as I did.

Thanks,

Just an update. It works. With the switch turn on or off, it produces chlorine as long as it is plugged in. Just need to sync with pump and you are good to go. It bypasses the sensors. Before, it would not produce any chlorine due to 91 code. I did not want to buy another SWG.

Red,

I appreciate the advice! My system seams to be making Chlorine now, but the fan (inside the box with the wiring) is not coming on.
Is that correct, or will this cause it to overheat? Any advice will be much appreciated!
 
Ben,
I just did my eco6110 and I unhooked and removed the display completely, the plug for the display has 4 prongs, so I unhooked the fan and attached it to the two prongs of the display port closest to the fan, and plugged it in(before I got wired the cell)and the fan spun, not as fast as it was but it still moved air, but seemed to be wrong rotation, suck instead of blow, so I pulled the wires out of the plug for the fan, just use small nail and push down on the silver on outside of connector and they will slide out, and swapped their orientation (this reverses the polarity) and now the fan spins correct direction. It blows air, not a ton but it's better than nothing.

Did you successfully bypass the two-plate side so it produces chlorine without the constant low salt warning?
I don’t really understand what you did with the fan and just wanted to know if you loved other wires to new spots, where’d you hook them up?

(so many posts here are about the older Intex model so the wiring is different)
