How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before removing any internal components.

  • Clean sensor window: Remove the Maidaid turbidity sensor and gently clean the optical window with a soft cloth and warm water to remove film or scale.
  • Inspect wiring: Check the connector and harness for moisture, corrosion, or damage. Dry and reseat.
  • Test sensor: If service data is available, measure sensor output or resistance. Replace the Maidaid turbidity sensor if readings are out of specification.
