III)Quick Service Check of Dual Level Control System:

1)All wire secure and properly connected.

2)Clean the electrodes. Lime (mineral scale) build-up can interfere with the operation of any liquid level control system.

3)Check the common (ground) connection. A little looseness or dirt can cause erratic operation.
