Questions and answers
Will not turn off
The K-Rain BL-KR V1.0 may not turn off because the valve appears to be stuck open. This can happen if the plunger is latched magnetically before installation. To fix this, energize all zones by running each active station for 2 seconds from the Manual Operation Screen. This will unlatch the coil and close the valve.
