Hi all,
I've been having quite a bit of difficulty with my Pentair Easy Touch 8 system. A bit of background first. I recently had an air leak at my suction side at the skimmer/main drain diverter valve and the pool pump was not working. Initially I did not realize the air leak was the problem so I swapped my SPA jets pump over to the Pool pump to see if the Pool pump was the problem. It was not and I found online to check for air leaks. I found a leak at the bottom of the diverter valve so I replaced the seals. I then swapped back the pumps and started the system. Leak fixed and the main pool pumps now works fine. In addition, I recently replaced my pool/spa return diverter valve (Pentair CVA24T) which had stopped working.
Problem 1: My Jets pump is no longer controlled by the Easy Touch system. When I press the Jets button on the Easy Touch I have to go over to the pump and manually turn it on (it's an Intelliflow 140). The Easy Touch button will, however, turn the Jets pump off. Here's a list of my other problems:
Problem 2: The return pool/spa diverter valve (Pentair CVA24T) never used to fully block the SPA since there is a waterfall from the SPA to the pool when SPA is not in use. Now it goes the full 180 and blocks the SPA when in Pool mode.
Problem 3: I can no longer turn on my lights from the main control panel or the wireless remote.
I can still turn the pool pump on and off with the Easy Touch. The Air Blower for the SPA still works as it should. Also the schedule for the pool pump and the Cleaner works fine. The Freeze function works fine. And the SPA/Heater works fine with the diverter valves moving into the correct position for the SPA.
Any advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
