If you can't run a new wire, then the add-a-zone should work. You could also wire two valve to run at the same time? If you have enough water pressure and flow to cover it. I know they do have radio controlled valves. Well I ran across them 25 years ago. Beats me where to get them. Google is your friend. lol

Nope the boxes shouldn't be full of dirt. Why bother installing a box if you're just going to bury them? But, I've seen gophers fill up a box in 1 day. If you're capable, I'd empty the box with a hand trowel or whatever it takes. Then see if it gets filled back up. Maybe ask the guy to come back n look at it.

Maybe you can measure gallons per minute by reading the water meter. Maybe have the plumber install the connection first then measure then design.
Ok, notice how at the bottom of that diagram it says 1994. These valves were obsolete a long time ago. In my entire career servicing 5 cities, I only saw the flo-pro 2 times in 29 years. I've never had to take one apart. Nor do I have one laying around. There's aren't even how to videos that I could find. Is there another valve somewhere on the property that you can carefully take apart to see how it goes? Or just unscrew the solenoid to see how the white piece is seated? Meaning how far down do...
Since you've changed the valve and you have the exact same symptoms, then there wasn't a problem with the original valve. But with that said, if you installed the exact same model valve that you had before, it's having the same issue as the previous valve. There's probably too much flow going through the valve. When it shuts off you're getting water hammer. That could be what cracked the pipe. And it will happen again if you don't fix it. Is this your valve? You could try fiddling with the flow ...
That's a super cool idea. Maybe attach it to one of the sprinkler heads to see what happens. I'm not sure how much pressure you'll need to make it come out the other heads. I don't know what kind of heads you're referring to. Spray heads? Shrub heads would work great. You could buy a 100 foot roll of 5/8" drip tubing. Then you could poke holes in it anywhere you wish.
I believe there's a problem with the common wire. It's broken or come off somewhere. Do any digging lately? Maybe all the wires were cut.
Here's the best that I can do. Good luck!
Try this <click on that. Go out to a valve and see if it activates. I'm assuming it will. You don't have a master valve do you? I was assuming not because you said that you activated the valves manually. You said that you have a Hunter controller. Make sure the modules lock is on if you have one. Watch this on how to use your multimeter.
How many volts is the controller sending? How many volts is the valve receiving? What model valves do you have? and How many are there? You've basically said that everything is working. So I'm thinking that either the valves aren't receiving enough power to activate the solenoids or there is something wrong with every valve. Do a continuity test of the wiring and solenoids from the controller. Are they Rainbird valves? I've seen three solenoids of theirs go bad at the same time. The only time al...
I can't seem to find a valve by searching the model number that you've given. Can you post a picture of it? Go to ImgBB click on "start uploading".

I would imagine that everything is mostly straight lines and 90 degree angles. But you never know. It's literally impossible to know what someone may have done. You're just going on instinct to find it. As far as uploading a picture goes, try this. Go to imgBB click on "start uploading".

Are you installing the drip with pre-installed emitters every 12" I think it is? I only ask that because of what you said about wasting water. I would run the feeder tube as you've suggested.
I haven't had the pleasure of working with a bluetooth Node. Normally a controller will run the programs that you've scheduled. It should run both A and B. I know that you've scoured the manual. But here's a couple of links to keep you busy. lol Upgrading Firmware NODE-BC SUPPORT NODE-BT
I would do two things. First I'd reset the controller. According to the manual, you use a screwdriver to do so. Look on page 27 Also, remove the common wire/s from the controller. Now run your test again. Same reading? Still 6v, I'd say the controller is bad. If you get 24v or so then something else is shorting it out.
I'd venture to guess that 5 sprinklers run on one valve and 5 sprinklers run on a totally different valve. Do you have a master valve? It could be that there's a problem with one of the valves so it runs every time the master valve runs. Meaning the master valve runs with all zones. 1-2-3-4. Seems as though you must have 5 valves, two must be wired together on zone 4. Unless you're mistaken. How many zones/wires are hooked up to the controller? So slot 5 is empty? I'm not going to say it's a bad...

That trick I mentioned about the pressure gauge, that was for hose bibs. I don't think you'll get any air at the test cock. And your manifold does have a lot of whooptydo's. Each turn takes away a small amount of pressure. ...
