Solar Touch Solar Heater

[rkaessner]

I have had a issue with my solar pool heater / Pentair Solar Touch controller. The unit will throw a code “ Pump Alarm Solar Paused”
It happens completely randomly and if it does it’s after the pump runs at night then won’t turn on when it heats up during the day. I can easily reset and it turns on. I have a Pentair Intel VFD pump. It might happen a few days in a row then won’t for a few weeks. No changes made with anything and no power outages.

What model number Pentair Intel VFD pump do you have?

Is it connected to the Solartouch with a RS-485 comm cable?

I’ll have to look when I get home and yes on the comm cable.

It works 80% of the time with no charges to pump or temp. Completely random.
