Thanks for the video I was aware of the flashing lights for inspection but just opened my pool up here in the north east and have both lights steadily illuminated. I figured it was just my salt level being really low as it's only 2100 ppm. I had to drain the pool a few inches below return for winter and added a lot of freshwater. I was worried my cell wasn't working so I planned on adding salt soon but this video makes me feel much better. Thanks for posting, exactly what I needed to see.

Great video! Mine are blinking and I think they are steady too at times. When I got my water checked it did not have a reading of chlorine - so they said they think my salt cell is bad. This is the 3rd year the lights are blinking but the water is staying clear. I think I need DIY Bill to check it out!

Hello. Thank you for the video. I am wondering if you know why the SWG would be reading at 2300 if the salt level of the water when tested is actually much higher around 3200? Also, will the SWG shut off completely if the reading is too low?

Press the diagnostic button 5 times for a real time salt level. Also, turn off your generator for a day or two when you add salt. If you don't, you can damage the board.

Help! my salt reading is 4100 and stuck there, (we changed t-15 cell to t-9 and re calibrated it to the t-9 cell), but the diagnostic board shows 4100 BUT the actual is 3400. and the amperage shows 00.0 ; but when re calibrate everything goes into normal range except the salt both instant and main screen. then they wont stay in normal range, such as the amperage back to 00.0 just changed the cell after 6 years , so the board maybe is bad too??? 10K gallon pool......

Hmmm? My first guess is that the board is bad but I'm not positive? Let me do so research. If you resolve, please post.

Hey John, try recalibrating your cell before you do a factory restore. Here is a link to recalibrate the cell. Let me know if this works. www.inyopools.com/HowToPage/how_to_recalibrate_the_salt_level_on_a_hayward_aqua_rite.aspx

Hello. I noticed you turned the timer switch on when you added salt. I’ve never done that. Should I be doing that every time I add salt? And how long do you leave it on before turning it back to the automatic timer position?
@billbrown13804 жыл бұрын
I always turn on the timer/filter when adding salt. I usually let it run 24 to 48 hours, depending on how much salt I add, to make sure my levels are correct

Hey Gabe, good question. I haven't found any info on how to change the default screen. You might want to try resetting back to ther default settings. I'm opening my pool in the next couple of days, I'll play around with the display to see if I can change it. If I'm successful, I'll reply back. If you figured it out I'd be interested what you did.

The check salt and inspect cell light on our unit is "on". The salt level indicates 0. We have followed all steps to reset as well as cleaned the cell but we continue to get the same result. We took a sample of water to our local pool supplier and had the water tested and the test indicates the salt level is 3400. I think we need a new cell. Any other suggestions?
@billbrown13805 жыл бұрын
At my local pool store they have a device that can check to see if the cell is bad. I would do that before purchasing a new cell because the control board could also be bad. Good luck!

There is a part on the motherboard that needs to be replaced. It has 2 solder points. It's black and about the size of a quarter and about 1/4in thick. There are other videos on replacing it. 2021 the part is about $10. It worked for my unit couldn't get a salt reading at all. Now that I replaced its reading salt level again.
