I have a Pentair Easytouch system and it makes a buzzing noise for about 2 seconds then no buzzing for about 20 then buzzes again for another 2 seconds. When I shut off the breaker for the electric heater the buzzing stops. If I leave the breaker on the pool heater works fine but the buzzing continues its on/off cycle. Any ideas? Thanks!

A,
Nothing normal..
Open it up and see if you can located what is making the noise. Should be pretty obvious, since nothing in there normally makes noise.

You'd think it's easy but I couldn't tell exactly where. It almost sounds like it's coming from the top section of the box on the left side where there doesn't appear to be anything but wires. It's very frustrating...
A,
You could unplug all the relays from the main board. Mark where they each go first.
Then unplug any actuator connectors.
If the sound goes away, start plugging things back in, one at a time.

Transformers like to make buzzing/humming noises. Could be a loose transformer mount. There’s a step down transformer that runs the low voltage side of the electronics.
