Hello all,
I have a money pit (Pool) fresh water . My Pentair Easy Flow box is having some major issues.
1) Started filling the pool all day instead of 5 min a day.
2) The pump cycle turns off and on.
3) The digital screen is going crazy and just not working right.
I have done alittle research on it and found I am in need of a motherboard replacement. I am thinkin of just replacing the entire unit. Any other thoughts?
Thanks
Gregg

You mean "Easy Touch", right? Like this:

I'll move your thread out where others can see it; I have no personal experience with those systems.

Good point, Brad. Power cycling electronics is often appropriate as a first attempt at a solution.

When I'm having to help friends and family with computers, one of the first things to say is always, Have you power cycled your PC?. I know my DroidX phone gets seriously confused every couple of weeks, and has to be cycled.
