Why are there alarm lights on my control panel?

Alarm light is on.

  • Alarm setpoint too low - Adjust to a higher value.
  • Excess pressure drop - Check cleaning system and compressed air supply. Replace filter cartridges if they do not clean down.
  • Pressure tubing disconnected or plugged - Check tubing for kinks, breaks, contamination, or loose connections.

Clean output lights flash but system is not functioning.

  • Improper wiring - Check wiring between the timer control board and the solenoid valve coils.
  • Defective solenoids - Check all solenoid coils for proper operation.
  • Timer board not powered - Check power light on timer board's LED display. If not illuminated, check the fuse on the timer board. Replace as necessary.
  • Timer board defective - If LED is illuminated, observe the output display. Install a temporary juicer across the main override terminal to the COM terminal. Output LED's should flash in sequence. Check output using a multimeter. Measure from SOL COM to a solenoid output. The needle will deflect when the LED flashes for that output if voltage is present at output terminals during flash. Replace board if necessary.
