TURBINE OPERATION: If no water is flowing through
the softener, the turbine indicator displays three zeros.
When water is flowing, a 000 to 140 count repeats for
each gallon (3.8 liters) of water passing through the tur-
bine. To check for positive operation of the turbine if
zeros are shown, open a nearby soft water faucet and
observe the turbine count. If you don't get a reading in
the display with faucet open, pull the sensor housing
from the valve outlet port (see Fig. 40). Pass a small
magnet back and forth in front of the sensor. You
should get a reading in the display. If you get a read-
ing, unhook the inlet and outlet plumbing and check the
turbine for binding.
POSITION SWITCH STATUS: With the valve in service,
or any of the recharge cycle positions, the position
switch indicator will show the switch open. While the
valve is rotating from one position to another, the posi-
tion switch indicator will show the switch closed. There
is likely a problem if indications vary from this pattern.
