Do you have a question about the Aqua Solar GL-235 and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
Yes my Hayward aqua solar gl-235 has power and the power heating and cooling lights are on I try and manual test the actuator and I have nothing.?
If the Hayward Aqua Solar GL-235 has power but the actuator does not respond during a manual test, possible issues include:
1. Incorrect Connector Placement – Ensure the actuator is plugged into the correct 3-pin connector. If the valve operates in the opposite direction, try switching to the other connector.
2. Blown Fuse – Check the fuse located on the left side of the main circuit board. Replace it with a 2A, type ATO-2 fuse if necessary.
3. Faulty Control Circuitry – Verify the control circuitry by disconnecting the solar sensor from the terminal block. If the “Heating” LED does not turn off and the “CHECK SENSOR” LED does not turn on, the control board may have an issue.
4. Dip Switch Settings – Ensure the dip switch settings are correctly configured for automation.
5. Temperature Dial Misalignment – Confirm that the temperature dial is set to the desired temperature.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, further inspection of the actuator and wiring may be needed.

Solar system will not turn on during warm days, My pool is at 78 degrees and my solar system is set to 90, I can manually test it and it will work but it will not automatically turn on
The Hayward Aqua Solar GL-235 system will only turn on when the collector (solar) sensor temperature is at least 4ºF higher than the pool/spa sensor temperature and the pool/spa temperature is below the "Desired Temperature" setting. If the pool temperature is 78ºF and the system does not turn on, possible reasons include:
1. The solar collector temperature is not at least 4ºF higher than 78ºF.
2. The "Desired Temperature" setting is 78ºF or lower, meaning the system does not need to heat the pool.
3. A malfunction in the pool or solar sensor could prevent proper operation.
4. The system is not set to "AUTO" mode.
To troubleshoot, ensure the system is in "AUTO" and check sensor readings.
