AUTOMATIC ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSTICS

The faceplate timer (PWA) computer has a self-diag- nostic function for the electrical system, except for

input power and water meter. _,_

The computer monitors the elec- --,-- Err_

tronic components and circuits

for correct operation. If a mal- !

function occurs, an error code {

appears in the faceplate display. - - - -

The chart below shows the error codes that could appear, and the possible defects for each code.

While an error code appears in the display, all face

plate buttons are inoperable except the SELECT button. SELECT remains operational so the service person can make the MANUAL INITIATED ELEC- TRONIC DIAGNOSTICS (below) to further isolate the defect, and check the water meter.

2.Press the ON/OFF-HOLD button to advance the valve to the next position. To verify component operation, or to possibly isolate a defect, observe the following.

POSITION SWITCH STATUS: With the valve in service, or any of the recharge cycles, the switch indicator will show open ---_--. While the valve is rotating from 1 position to another, the indicator will show the switch closed --"_. A defect is probable if indications vary from this pattern.

WATER METER TURBINE: With soft water in use, the turbine flow rate display continually repeats a 000 to 140 count for each gallon of water passing through the turbine. The display will remain a steady...000 if soft

water is not in use (open a nearby soft water faucet to check).

If you don't get a reading in the display, with faucet open, pull the sensor from the valve outlet port. Pass a small magnet back and forth in front of the sensor. You
