Salt cell gone?

[alee63]

Hello everyone, my Hayward aquaplus salt cell has given up the ghost it looks like. Here's my display
board #'s, +31.98V, +0.00A, 68 degrees 0000ppm. What's the verdict?

This is the basic information we need to know in diagnosing an problem:

• Report all readings when you..
  • Move the switch from auto to off and check all of the readings.
  • Move the switch back to auto and recheck the readings.
  • Move the switch to off for a minute and then back to auto and recheck the readings.
• What are the first seven characters of the cell and box serial numbers?
• What is the actual salinity and how are you measuring it?

Hi ajw22 , sorry I haven't had time to respond to my post. I did take cell and had it checked and it's bad.
Now to figure out how to replace it, new ones are 1k and generic ones $3-600 , rebuilt $495. Complicating
matters my wife is out on disability and finances are tight. May have to go generic vs rebuilt for this replacement.
Which idea would be better? Thanks

You get what you pay for.

Maybe you will get lucky with a generic cell.
