Orbit ECU pump signal fail.., anyone?
Hi all, after a compressor replacement (followed by serious FOD damage...) I hooked-up the whole lot but it wouldn't start.
It appears that the pump is not running. The data terminal shows "pump" when I try to prime, normaly the ECU gives a short burst but now nothing at all. Connected the pump to a 3v source and it runs very smooth so thats not an issue. Measured voltage on the pump terminals which give zero. Resetted the whole lot but doesn't make any change. Also recharged the ecu pack which didn't help.
It's an older manual ECU V4.2 from Orbit which ran perfectly from 2003 until now, tried to contact Orbit but friday afternoon....they gone home... [
] Will try again monday but does anyone up here had something similar. I'm afraid it's something in the ecu circuit, hope not though......
Cheers,
Gerald

there are not many orbit users here , well maybe exept for the Booster guys..
sounds to me a bad circuit in the ecu

Tnx, already posted there.....will probably end-up sending it back to orbit next week, bad timing, will be away from home for two weeks.......s**t happens.
