I have an IC40 that I installed about a year ago today.. A few months ago it started reporting low salt levels, then ultimately it shows nothing now.
It has been generating chlorine, so I figured no big deal, it's not very accurate anyways. Now all of a sudden my pool has no chlorine. I have a 20K gallon pool, the IC40 is set to 75% now since it's been so hot lately.
What's interesting through all of this is that the lights on the cell show green lights, like nothing is wrong. I went to clean the blades a few months ago and it was like new, so I'm sure it's still almost clean if i were to remove it and inspect it now.
I've read that it's unknown why the unit stops reporting salt, but it still thinks the salt levels are good. Would a bad flow switch stop it from producing chlorine, or is the unit probably just toast?
Edit: And I've manually tested the salt using the Taylor kit, it shows 3600ppm..
