Q: I have an ic 40 520555 and am showing no green or red lights when my system is turned on. Do i need to replace the generator or just the cell? both are going on their 3rd summer. Thanks

Asked by: Scott - 5/7/2018
A: I would recommend checking the fuse underneath the power center. If that doesn't fix it, it could be a more serious electronics problem. But even if it's not the cell, I would give you a heads up that based on my experience, three years is fairly deep into that system's cell lifespan, just so you can make a better decision about what you want to do.

Q: All 4 or 5 green lights in a row are flashing. What does that mean?

Asked by: Bobey - 12/14/2020
A: This is a feature for low chlorine. The Output Levels are listed as 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%. Since in the winter some people will prefer to have less than 20%, if you press the LESS button when 20% is selected, it will take you to the Low Chlorine Output mode. This changes the lights to 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, and 10%. You will know this by the lights flashing instead of staying solid. If you have all 5 lights flashing, you are currently in Low Chlorine Output Mode and it is set to 10% output. To leave this setting, you just need to increase output and it will go back to the original 20-100% mode.
