      Laura CarterSep 2, 2025
      If there is no water flow display when water is flowing in your Autotrol Control Systems, consider these potential causes: * Ensure the bypass valve is not in the bypass position. * Check that the meter probe is fully inserted into the meter housing. * Remove any foreign material that may be restricting the meter turbine's rotation, and flush with clean water. If the turbine doesn't spin freely, replace the meter. * A defective meter probe or circuit board may be the cause. In any of these cases, the timer should be replaced.
