Possible Causes

Incorrect schedule in AquaLink or pump controller, Time-of-day not set correctly, Pump set to manual mode only

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No internal electrical work is needed; do not open sealed electrical compartments.

  • Check time and date:
    • Verify the clock on the Jandy pump controller or AquaLink is set correctly.
  • Review schedules:
    • Ensure at least one active schedule is programmed for the desired days and times.
  • Control mode:
    • Confirm the pump is set to AUTO or SCHEDULE mode, not MANUAL ONLY.
  • Sync with automation:
    • If using AquaLink, ensure the pump is not also running its own conflicting schedule; set one device as the primary scheduler.
