      If the valve on your Galcon Controller isn't opening in either automatic or manual mode, there could be a connection issue between the controller and the solenoid. Try disconnecting and reassembling the solenoid. Alternatively, the batteries might be dead. In this case, replace them.

      If the valve remains open on your Galcon Controller even when the lever is in the AUTO position, the solenoid may be open. To resolve this, connect the controller to the valve, insert batteries, and then manually close and open the valve using the controller.

      If you hear a click but the valve on your Galcon Controller doesn't close, first ensure that the valve lever is in the AUTO position. If it is, the issue might be dirt or scale in the valve mechanism. Try cleaning or replacing the valve to resolve this.
