Yeah not shocking. Its really old equipment at this point for a computer board. I replaced my system a couple of years ago. Easier to manage individual controls than a master board sitting outside in the elements. Just glad this video is still helping people. I had others to make but havent had time. Thanks for the comment and view

This same repair worked for me. After soldering the backside of the circuit board multiple times. I replaced the same relay as Travis. The last few times I tried the solder repair the light was out when I restarted the filter but I heard a clicking noise (probably the bad relay) and the light came back on. After replacing the relay no light. Thanks for the video Travis. It saved me the cost of a new circuit board, now about $650 on Amazon.

New Omron Relay 24vdc SPDT G8P-1C4P-24VDC NO 20A, NC 10A 250VAC was the part I bought back in 2016. Not seeing what I purchased back then available, but if you search around you might find an alternative or new version.

New boards are $1,000 + these days. Hayward has them on sale for $900 so very expensive. I have soldered the K1 many times but as you surmise something is causing that to burn out. Transformer or switch? How do you test the voltage across the yellow wires? Replacing the switch? You skipped that part. And the part #?
@traviscollection60352 жыл бұрын
I no longer have the board on my system, I ended up replacing my configuration after dealing with it and a amp 0 error. Hayward used to have a PDF on their site that had the voltage outputs for each lead out of the transformer, but I honesty believe it's just a poorly designed board. I can only suggest looking at their site for the PDF and test. Personally I decided to split up my system rather than have one control board, so my pump timers, salt control, solar are all separate.

@@traviscollection6035 I obviously agree with what you said. I have my variable speed pump (new) separate from my system and that has been great. Controlled by a phone app and not dependent on the board. But the rest? Ugh. I'm using chlorine tabs right now. And have to hot wire my heater and change valves manually for spa. Like many Hayward products...poorly designed

I would suggest using the Pro-Logic-Diagnostics pdf found on the Hayward site and test your transformer as a starting point. Its always possible the traces in the board are bad or another part has failed, but its always safest to assume something simple and work your way to more complex solutions. This was just a solution for all of us who had been soldering that part in to fix the burn out that would occur, and were tired of that solution not holding for any length of time. Good luck, if you figure it out feel free to post it here for others to see.

Travis thanks for the advice and video- know you are helping a lot more people than just those that make comments. As for my specific issue, after soldering once, I replaced the switch per your instruction. It did fix the no cell problem but now I have a no Amp/ppm problem so the chlorinator its still not running. I am willing to look at a potential transformer or capacitor issue before board replacement, but do you have any advice on how to test those or what else the problem may be? Thx

Hey JDB, I thought I replied, sorry. There was someone else that posted the No Amp problem. I couldn't find anything on line about it, but would be curious to find out if its a simple fix or something more complicated. Sadly not everything is as simple as a soldered in switch to repair.

Totally in No Cell Power hell. I have tried soldering the K1 joint with a friend. No bueno. There is a guy on eBay who says he will fix it for $150. I might do that rather than buy the stuff to unsolder it. I don’t even have a soldering iron and my friend just moved. Thoughts?
@traviscollection60355 жыл бұрын
Michael J. If soldering K1 didn’t help its possible the switch failed but I would say test your fuse and if comfortable test the transformer outputs. You could end up paying for a replacement that doesn’t solve the problem. Even entire board replacements don’t usually include a transformer. Also make sure your board is the same model. I have a friend with an older board that had a capacitor go bad instead of the switch. Hope this helps

Hey Jayson, sorry missed your post. Good call out, and yeah always check the easy stuff first, this video wasn't intended to be a be all solution. Check the fuse, check the transformer, if its the first time check the solder point on the back of the board, have your salt cell tested at a local pool supply company to make sure it hasn't gone bad. Personally I did all of that, my solder point was always the issue, but after redoing it 6 times in a year I got tired of it and didn't want to replace an entire board so was able to just replace this switch.

Hey Steve, are you having a hard time finding it on the board or cant buy it from Amazon? On the board its in the upper right area near the power leads. If your board doesn't look like mine at kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKGamKRpitmYj68 then you probably have a newer or older board. Unfortunately this is the only system I can fully speak to, but I know the older version had a similar issue with capacitors failing, but not the electronic switch.

Had this no power problem happen and I first tried the "re-solder the joint" fix. It worked, but I saw your video and ordered the switch just in case. Well 3 weeks later it went again. So I replaced the switch as in your video (the pry with a screwdriver tip was very helpful). The board looked pretty burnt but I cleaned it up as best I could and used a thumbtack to clean the holes and got the new one in. Powered up and it worked!

Are you comfortable with electronics and electricity? There are various reasons why a fuse might pop, such as increased draw or a short. The Hayward website has instructions on how to test the transformer to make sure it hasn't gone bad. I would also check for any damage or cuts in any of your wires. Beyond that you may need to consult an electrician or pool hardware specialist. Hope this helps
