Station will not turn on

I turned my system on for the first time after fall blow out and one station will not turn on during a cycle of my system. I have 7 stations and station 3 will not turn on. the controller box rotates goes to that station and i hear the click like it wants to turn on but none of the sprinklers turn on. i have Rainbird dv-100 valves.

Thanks, bduncan

I too have the exact same issue. I have even tried to start the zone manually via the valve station with no success.

Make sure that the zone switch on the clock is not in the off position. Then make sure the manuel switch on the valve is in the off position. Start with the clock. Switch the wire from the zone that is not firing to a zone you know is working. If you still have the problem. You can rule out your clock. Next check your wiring. Both controller and valve box. Then check the valve solenoid. Unscrew the problemed one and a adjacent one. Switch them. If the zone works. You will need to get a new solenoid. If not you may need to replace the whole Valve. Good Luck :thumbsup:
