Question
QUESTION: Hi, I have 2 Stations, ,Station 1 comes on once aweek to water the lawn for 20 min.
Station 2 comes on 3times a day to do the vegie patch, it  (station 2)comes on at 6-30am, 12noon and 7pm for 5 min every time.
The problem is, Station 1 comes on for 5min to do the lawn then when the 5min is up Station 2comes on as requsted, why is STATION 1 coming on, its only supposed to come on once a week on a Friday for 20min. PLEASE HELP Bob

ANSWER: Hi Bob
With the info you provided I undestod you have ONE program for the two stations, split the stations on separate programs, let's say program A does the station 1, and program B does the station 2. Every program should have his own start time, days to water and time for the station.
Hope this will help you.

QUESTION: Thanks Guillermo, I allready had done what you suggested.
Look forward to hearing fron you Bob

Answer
Hi
If station 1 remain open when it suppose to be closed, this can be due to:
1) Port 1 defective at the controller. Check the volts at port 1 when is supposed no to work if you have volts use other port if available.
2) Defective selenoid on valve 1. Replace it.
3) dirty valve, open it and clean.
4) Defective valve. Replace it.

Regards
Guillermo
