control box?

i have my box programed but when it comes time to kick on the stations is starts blinking.....Looks like it cycled thru the first 3-4 stations this morning then started blinking like it would with power failure.....When I try to run each station manually it begins blinking as well for all stations.

What if you have an open electrical box on the side of the house and when you turn the sprinklers on everytime it gets to a particular zone it gets water in the electrical box and trips your GFI. I think it is either this or that you may have a bad solenoid valve.

You will like my other Idea.

I think your timer is tired after watering the first 3 or 4 valves.
