Ballast Problem..

[23scuba]

I have a 2008 lsv with gravity 3 and when I go to fill my left ballast it also fills the right at the same time just like I have them both in the fill position.. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Replace the solenoid, you can pick one up at Home Depot.

Yep, I'm sure it's the sprinkler valve on the one that's filling when you don't want it to stuck open. +1 on Home Depot. easy fix.

Pull the whole system and get the 3 reversible pump kit from wakemakers. :)

^^^^^ This. Also check and see if the little black switch on the sprinkler valve in closed.

Ok thanks guys I'm gonna recheck that black switch again but I'm pretty sure it's right.. It worked fine one day then the next it was filling both sides.. Looks like it's new sprinkler valve time.. Do you all just take your old ones to Home Depot or just get the part # or something?

Don't put those in again. Crap. Use the Irritrol 700 series like this:
