Possible Causes

Controller in vacation or standby mode, Incorrect time/date or regeneration schedule, Faulty flow meter not registering usage, Failed drive motor

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before opening the control housing.

  • Check display mode: Ensure the BWT unit is not set to vacation, manual-only, or standby mode. Switch to automatic regeneration.
  • Verify schedule: Confirm the regeneration time and days are correctly programmed and that the clock is accurate.
  • Test flow meter: Run water at a tap and check if the display shows flow or volume counting. If not, inspect and clean the BWT flow meter.
  • Manual regen test: Attempt to start a manual regeneration. If the valve does not move, suspect a motor or control fault.

If the unit still will not regenerate, professional diagnosis of the motor and control board is recommended.
