    Why do stations turn on when they are not supposed to on my Orbit Timer?
    • M

      If your Orbit Timer's stations turn on at unexpected times, it could be due to several reasons. Firstly, high water pressure might be the cause, so try reducing it. Secondly, verify that you haven't programmed more than one start time. Finally, double-check that your AM/PM settings are correct.

      If one station on your Orbit Timer is stuck on and won't shut off, it could be due to a faulty valve, in which case you should replace it. Alternatively, there might be dirt or debris stuck in the valve, so clean it thoroughly. Lastly, the valve diaphragm might be faulty, and you'll need to replace it.

    Why do all valves not turn on with my Orbit 57900?
    • V
      virginiacohenAug 17, 2025
      If all valves on your Orbit Timer fail to activate, the issue might stem from a defective or disconnected transformer. Ensure the transformer is properly connected. If it is, and the valves still don't turn on, consider replacing the transformer. Also, incorrect programming can cause this issue, so review and correct your settings.

    What to do if valves continue to turn on and off when they are not programmed on Orbit Timer?
    • S
      Sheila HendersonAug 27, 2025
      If your Orbit Timer valves are continuously turning on and off unexpectedly, it could be due to overlapping schedules caused by multiple start times. Correct any overlapping start times in your programming. Another potential cause is excessive water pressure, so try reducing it.

    How to fix an Orbit Timer that will not power up?
    • D
      Donald MarshallSep 1, 2025
      If your Orbit Timer fails to power up, the most likely cause is that the transformer isn't properly plugged into a working outlet. Make sure the transformer is securely plugged into an outlet that you know is functional.
