Paramount Module Shooting Out Water

I have a Paramount 6 valve system and last week noticed water was shooting out one side of the module. Finding a broken o ring, it was a quick and simple replacement. Unfortunately, the issue continues. There aren’t any noticeable cracks in the lid or any other pieces. The band clamp was put back on with the recommended tap on the backside to tighten. Any ideas? The leak seems to be on one specific side of the module if that helps.
Thanks!

Is the water shooting out from the band clamp or is it lower on the housing than that? If lower on housing and not coming from the pipes on the bottom, chances are the lower housing is compromised and needs to be replaced. If from the band clamp, takeitapartagain and inspect the o-ring - add a bit of pool lube to the o-ring and be sure the mating surfaces are clean.

If the housing is compromised, you shouldn't continue to run the infloor as it is under pressure and you could have a catostrophic failure.

What type of pump do you have? Fill out your signature listing your pool type and all the equipment.
