Hi All,
The filter works fine in spa mode but won't fully function in pool mode. In spa mode, the gauge reaches the start position immediately. but now in the pool, it won't get there and mostly stays down.
earlier the pump just showed Alert! Priming Dry. disappear after I switched to Spa mode.

thanks

I did find out what was the problem. the skimmer on the pool was stuck in a close position to stop water from flowing in.
thank you

O,

Is the problem that you have no actual water flow, or is the problem that you have good flow, but you don't see any pressure on the filter gauge?

You have a large cartridge filter and a 60 lb. gauge, so you may have plenty of flow..

At 1200 RPM my 30lb. gauge reads about 1 lb.

Please let me know if your salt cell is working when in the pool mode. If so, that I'd say things are working like they should..

Thanks,

Jim R.
