Fleck softener will not start a regeneration cycle automatically based on time or usage.

Safety first: No internal work is required for basic checks; unplug only if removing covers.

• Verify time and regen time: Set the correct time-of-day and desired regeneration time (e.g., 2:00 AM) on the Fleck control.
• Check meter function: Run water in the house and watch the display. On metered models, the remaining capacity or flow indicator should change. If not, troubleshoot the meter (see flow meter fault).
• Review programming: Ensure the control is set to metered or time clock mode as intended, and that day override is not set to 0 (disabled) if you rely on it.
• Confirm not in bypass: Make sure the Fleck bypass is in the service position and that the control is not in a vacation/hold mode.
