Hayward Swimpure : Should I replace cell, board, or entire unit.
I hope this post gets out considering the status of the forum.
Bought the unit in 2011 and haven't done much to it since. When I turn on the pumps the display comes on and the "No flow" blinks normally for about ~20 seconds (indicating that the timer is active). Once the no flow condition clears none of the LED's light up. I can cycle through the diagnostic screens but it will not generate chlorine. I took the cell out and checked it out, nothing looks out of place. This unit came with the cell for 40K gallons of water (for my 20K pool).
I did a little digging and found that sometimes the board goes bad, sometimes the fuse, and sometimes the cell. I'm considering replacing the cell and seeing what happens. The voltage reads for the cell about 2V (don't know what's normal) and the current reads 0.
Please advise.
