I replaced a Imperial controller with a new Orbit controller. 5 of 6 zones are working fine. One zone will not come on. I tried switching the wire to a different terminal, no success. I opened the solenoid and was able to get that zone on. There is no obvious breaks in the wire at either end. Could the solenoid have been damaged by changing the controller? Any other ideas? Thanks in advance.
I'm replacing an old imperial controller that isn't keeping time accurately anymore. I purchased an orbit 6 zone controller, but ran into confusion before I removed the wiring from the Imperial. It has 2 wires attached to the Common terminal. 1 white wire is part of the group that includes the colored wires from each zone. The 2nd wire is a single larger gage wire. I don't know what it is connected to. Any ideas? Should I just connect both wires to the Common terminal of the new controller? Than...
