It was installed as part of the original pool build in November 2018.
The salt level light flips rapidly back and forth between green and red
The flow light is red
The cell light is blank
The sanitizer level lights up 40%
When I do the self diagnostics, the 20% button lights up briefly and then turns off, showing that only 2000 hours on the cell have been used? That can't be right, because as I said this unit has been running almost continuously since November 2018.
The SWG is not producing any chlorine.
Chemical levels: Chlorine 4.0, pH 7.6, TA 70, CYA 50, CA 375, Salt 4000
Here is what I have done:
1. Verified that filter pressure is normal
2. Verified that water coming from pump to pool is normal flow
3. Verified normal salt level
4. Took out IC 40 unit and used camera to look for blockages in pipes leading to and away from SWG, verified no blockages
5. Inspected blades inside IC40, no residue visible
6. Used water hose to rinse out SWG
7. Acid washed SWG, verified that NO bubbles were forming when unit was flushed with acid
8. Replaced flow switch
Even after doing all this, the lights don't change.
I'm assuming the cell must be bad and need to be replaced. I'm just not sure why it shows only 2000 hours of use? When the cell goes bad, does that mean the self diagnostic test isn't valid any longer?
