Rain Bird ESP-16LX+ Dial Display Issues: Reset or Replace?

Dial Sometimes Fails to Show Station/Time; INITSYS Done

Intermittent display on the ESP‑16LX+ dial is a known quirk. Try the reset button on the back of the front panel. If the problem persists, the dial module may be failing.

Replacement Costs

• Base ESP‑16LX+ (4 stations): ~$95
• 3‑station expansion module: ~$25 each (up to 13 stations total)

Installation is simple—transfer the labeled field wires to the new controller’s matching terminals.
