What I Didn't Know About Installing A Rain Freeze Sensor

[@loluv1069]

Its always great to admit your mistakes so you and others can learn from them. Every time I made a mistake in a repair I would write down in my irrigation note book what went wrong and how I could have done it better the next time.

That’s a great idea, to keep a note book like that. We all make mistakes, learning from them is the important thing.

Great info! Thanks man! I would’ve installed it incorrectly! I live in Las Vegas so I’ve never seen one installed out here with the little to no rainfall we receive but there will be someone who will want one.

[@AmericanIrrigator]

You bet. Yeah we don’t receive much rain here in west Texas either but every new install has to have a rain freeze sensor. The freeze part is the most useful.

Can you disconnect the wires from the transmitter Clik and replace with a new one without removing all the wires from the panel? I have an old transmitter (pigtail wire) and it would be great if I can just swap the transmitter and leave the wires alone.

I have an SRC controller with only one terminal for the rain sensor, do I connect both the white and blue wire to that terminal or just one of those wires?
