IC40 lights on but disabled

[SanibelBlue]

Good afternoon,
I looked through the board but didn’t see my exact problem addressed. In anticipation of the cold coming into the gulf south I have disabled my Pentair IC40 through the intellicenter but the lights are still on. Low salt, flow is green, set output to 20% because if I turn it any lower all the lights flash continually. It isn’t making chlorine because it thinks the salt is too low. The cold water light doesn’t come on. Water is at 48. Is it ok as is? Freeze protection did come on during the night.
Thank you again for your help as I don’t really understand the intellicenter fully.

SB,

Setting the IntelliCenter to off just makes the IntelliCenter think you have no SWCG... It does nothing to shut off the power to the cell.

Any time the output is below 11% the sanitizer lights will flash just to let you know.. Nothing is wrong..

Set the output to zero.... I have a breaker just for the cell, so I just shut it off.

Thanks,

Jim R.

Oh ok, so should I just turn the output to zero and don’t worry about all the flashing lights? I was thinking the lights would go out but they never do. I don’t know why the cold light shut off doesn’t come on, it always used to but so far this winter it hasn’t, even when the water gets into the low 40s.

I have turned production to zero. Thank you for your help, Jim

SB,

The cold water light is turned on when the thermistor inside the flow switch senses water to be below 52 degrees...

Most likely the thermistor is bad, or the wiring to the thermistor is bad..

Thanks,
