I have a Circupool RJ45 SWG. Noticed last week that it was not producing chlorine and had the "low salt" and "check cell" lights lit up. I checked the salt and the drop test came back with 4400. The manual says it's good from 3000-4000, so it's a bit high, but it's not the high light that's flashing. After searching, most seem to recommend cleaning it with acid when the check cell is on, so I soaked it in a 2:1 dilution of 31.45% muriatic acid. Didn't see any bubbling or reacting, and from watching some YouTube videos, it looks like if it is scaled, it should begin violently bubbling. Also, I don't see any signs of scaling on the plates.
What should I do next to figure out what's wrong with it? It is 7 years old now, but 3-4 of those years we didn't have a pool, so it's probably only been used around 3.5 years, so I'm hoping it's not dead.
