I bought a house 3 years ago and was told that the sprinkler system just stopped working the summer before. I've finally found the time and gathered up the patience to deal with it and heres what I've got.... I have a rain bird 16 zone controller with 15 zones connected. The controller appears to be working, it's keeping time, has programs stored and when I manually activate zones, the controller is switching from zone to zone at the controller (checked wiring with a test light). Now, weird deal...
