Re: Mineral reading 4200 after new salt water cell install
Just a thought, but when salt cells go bad the often give a lower salt level reading than what is actually in the water. It's possible your old cell was reading low and you inadvertently added too much before buying the new cell. If the salt level is far too high, the swcg may not operate in order to prevent damage to the cell. If this is the case, it would explain both the cell reading "high" and the lack of chlorine.
In addition to the test kit watermom mentioned, you should also consider a k-1766 or aquacheck salt test strips. They can be found on the "Get the testkits you need" link in watermom's signature just like the k2006.
If it turns out the salt level is too high, the only way I know of to lower it is a partial drain and refill with fresh water. Teenagers are good for this if you have some handy.
