How To: Change a Jandy AquaPure Tri-Sensor

[@BruceRichardsonMusic]

This appears to be an older video, but the instructions are actually incorrect. The small board (pictured at 1:58, which sits between the mainboard of the control unit and the replacement sensor) is not required for the operation of the new style sensor shown. It should NOT be placed in the new installation. Also, take care (per instructions) to create a cable loop within the box, anchoring the sensor cable so that it won't damage the mainboard if it's yanked (that connector is on the edge of the board, which makes it more susceptible to damage).

I just replaced mine PLC1400, and you're right you don't need the small board. Now it is reading too high salt, like 43000 and displaying error 145 TOO HIGH SALT. DO you please know how to fix it? I pressed a little button under the sensor's connector as recommended on internet but it still shows high. thanks

@@chicofun4779 I'm getting this crazy high reading as well. Did you get it figured out, if so, what's the solution?

@@stephenthomas5375 Lord! I’m getting the 172/186 error messages and will likely need to replace my sensor. Since you are 4 days ahead of me, can you tell me where you ordered your part AND if you get a workaround for the salt reading, I’d be curious about that, too… looks like I may be headed that way…

if i am replacing the salt cell, can I just use the old tri-sensor and power cord?

Should have shown the power cord replacement as we'll

Not using a ground strap can destroy the PCBs!

Argh! He was tripping half the breakers the wrong way.
