How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Place the unit in bypass to restore water, then disconnect power.
- Attempt manual advance: If your model allows, manually advance the valve through stages using the control or a manual override screw.
- Check motor and gears: Inspect for broken gears or a seized motor. Replace the motor assembly if defective.
- Clear drain line: Ensure the drain hose and flow control are clear to allow proper backwash and rinse.
- Controller reset: After mechanical issues are resolved, reset the controller and reprogram settings.
- Replace head if needed: Persistent stalling may require replacement of the entire valve head.
