Valves wont turn off

The valves will not turn off automatically. This is a Hunter Pro-C irrigation system. Any suggestions?

No personal experience on this, but it seems like in the past I've heard the problem can be dirt, trash, sand that has gotten stuck in the valve. Try taking the valve apart (like if you were going to replace the diaphram and other inards) and clean it up and see if that makes a difference.

I was wondering if you could clarify exactly what you mean. You say ALL the valves water at their scheduled time then do not shut off when they're supposed to? Is the cycle repeating? I have customers who say, the valves wont go off. They mean they wont come on.

Water will not turn on

I have power to my box. I have programmed the system numerous times. I changed the backup battery. If I open the valves manually, the water comes on and the nozzles spray great. The are no broken pipes. The auto and the semi auto options will work though. I have an Irrtirol-600 box. When I try the semi auto to start the cycle, the box blinks, it says it is starting, but no sprinklers come on.
