jimmy, i do not have master valve but have a switch relay. do not see any loose wires. the controller is hard wired. all modules are same color (gray with black PCM-300)
mrfixit, they are grey, approx the same color as the controller door. http://img3.freeimagehosting.net/image.php?6fae8d9079.jpg
mrfixit, i have reset the system as you have described and get the same results. next, i have the newer pro-c with the lock. i also believe that 2 modules can not go wrong at the same time. lastly, i would like to add that it seems to me that it is possible to replace the base module. however i am puzzled that if the controller is not working correctly, why it recognizes and shows ALL stations? it also shows that zones are watering when i turn on to non-working zones. so, is there any litmus tes...
Jimmy, i performed both tests and here are the results. 1. test program cuts-off my pump for the non-working zones, but the timer is working fine. 2. quick test shows no error whatsoever. what is next? thanks.
mrfixit, appreciate your help. Now this is what i got after going thru some drills. * i have verified that only the base module has power and only those zones connected to it are working. i am glad to tell you that ALL of my zones work fine IF they are connected to the base module. * hence it seems to me that :- 1. pro-c controller/timer is working fine. 2. all solenoids are fine and 3. wiring is fine. Am i correct here??? * now, could it be the base module thru which everything passes thru? i ...
hi, since last couple of months, on my hunter pro-c controller system some zones are not working at all. my voltage-measuring test shows - A. some non-working zones having 0 volts (in any situation). B. whereas one of them always shows 1.1 volts (whenever any zone is turned on) C. of course, as expected, the working base module shows the correct voltages. now i have two questions for you. first, i have read that it is better/more reliable to conduct resistance test. therefore would u plz guide m...
hi mrfixit, thanks for your prompt response. let me respond by what i have already done so far. 1. everything used to work ok before (sometimes back though). 2. tested that transformer generates required voltage. 3. fyi, i use hunter pcm-300 expansion modules. now plz tell me :- a. how do you want me to unplug controller? i mean is there any on/off switch or do you want me to disconnect the three transformer wires (2 yellow and 1 green) from the controller or something else? b. what do you mean...
hi, i have hunter's pro-c controller and i-20 sprinklers. my problem is only 2 zones (connected to main module) are working but the other zones are not. this is what i have done/found so far --- 1. manually i opened solenoids in those (non-working) zones which could successfully open sprinklers. 2. i measured volt at the controller and non-working zones show 0 volts. however, strangely, one non-working zone shows 1.1 volt. according to hunter, in this case it could be either bad controller or ba...
