Blank display
Problem
®
The Pool Pilot display is blank.
Typical Solution
1. If the display is in bright sunlight, then shade the display to read.
2. Verify local shut off switch and / or main circuit breaker for the Pool Pilot
3. If power is provided to unit by an external control device, verify power is provided to and from the
device.
4. Fuse may be blown. See "Accessing the Power Module" on page 10.
No Error Displays
Problem
Salt level on display does not match pool store or salt test strip.
Typical Solution
1. The test may have been faulty or the salt strips may be old or damaged. Have salt level rechecked at
local pool store.
2. If the discrepancy is more than 400 ppm (mg/L), calibrate salt. See "Calibrate Salt" on page 21.
DC plug and cell terminals burned
Typical Solution
The cell plug may not be securely seated onto the terminals, allowing moisture to seep into the
plug. Ensure the cell cord is pressed completely onto the cell terminal. Check the terminals and
clean with a dry cloth to remove possible dirt and corrosion.
If the cell terminals leak, contact the AquaCal AutoPilot Customer Support department.
Premature cell failure
Typical Solution
Abnormally high cell usage due to an insufficient stabilizer (Cyanuric acid) level. Check the
stabilizer levels as recommended and adjust.
There may be debris in the cell. Check the cell monthly and clean debris as needed.
White flakes in the water
Typical Solution
This occurs when excessive calcium hardness is present. Visually inspect the cell for scale
build up and clean the cell. See "Servicing the Cell" on page 13.
See "Water Balance and Chemistry Recommendations" on page 4.
