The snap connector must be cut free. It is best to use a razor blade, as the space is extremely limited. Cut on the top side and not the underside to insure it will snap back into place.
Place the razor blade on top of knob control board, sliding the razor blade underneath the snap connector. Then move the razor blade back and forth to remove the snap connector.

Can anyone who has one of these tell me what the shiny black disc component just above the purple lithium battery compartment is, and what values it is? My dad’s has fried this component to crispy charcoal.

Some checking indicates it may be a metal oxide varistor, about 10mm diameter, but all the part numbers are burned away. Thanks for any help you can give me.

what happen if the screen said " PR OFF"

sob5th - Jun 20, 2018

Why won’t the A/B switch work properly? I can program A and it works fine - manual or program; same with the B switch. However, when programmed to have B stations run after A stations, B station valves will not function

The PR off is indicated. The fuse was blown and when I replace the fuse with the dial in the off position and I then plug it in it keeps blowing the new fuses. Any suggestions.
