What to do if the Zodiac Lighting Equipment pH dosing stops and the INFO indicator is flashing?
- S
  Stephen ZunigaAug 13, 2025
  If the "INFO" indicator is flashing and the pH setpoint hasn't been reached after 5 hours of injection, start by checking the pH level in your pool using a photometer or test strip. Also, inspect the pH sensor wiring on both the control box and the sensor holder. Ensure the pH minus container isn't empty and replace it if needed. For further troubleshooting, consult a pool specialist to test the peristaltic pump or address high alkalinity levels.

What to do if Zodiac MagnaPool shows ORP STOP and the INFO indicator is flashing?

  If the "INFO" indicator is flashing and the ORP setpoint hasn't been reached after 36 hours of hydroxination, begin by checking the chlorine level in your pool using a photometer or test strip. Inspect the ORP sensor wiring on the control box and the sensor holder. If cyanuric acid concentration is too high, drain the pool to lower it, and consider shock hydroxination. Also, check the cell conditions and increase daily filtration and SWC timers if they are not sufficient.

How to troubleshoot a Zodiac Lighting Equipment when the 'NO FLOW CHECK PUMP' and 'INFO' indicator are lit?
- M
  Mary BaldwinAug 21, 2025
  If the "INFO" indicator is lit during the production timers due to a NO FLOW CHECK PUMP error, examine the pump, filter, skimmer(s), and by-pass valve(s) for any issues. Clean them thoroughly if they are dirty. Also, check the wire connections of the flow switch.

What to do if my Zodiac Lighting Equipment is showing 'CHECK OUTPUT'?
- S
  Stephanie KellyAug 26, 2025
  If your Zodiac Lighting Equipment displays a CHECK OUTPUT error, turn off the hydroxinator and the power supply to the control box. Then, carefully check that all wires are properly connected, including the mains power supply and the cell. If the cell plates are worn, calcified, or out of order, consider replacing the cell.

Why does my Zodiac Lighting Equipment show a LOW TEMPERATURE and the INFO indicator is lit?
- B
  Bethany WellsAug 29, 2025
  If the “INFO” indicator light is lit and the temperature on the display flashes due to LOW TEMPERATURE, the hydroxinator has stopped production to protect the cell because the water temperature is less than or equal to 10°C. Hydroxination will automatically resume at the Low Mode hydroxination rate between 10 and 15°C and will resume at the normal hydroxination rate above 15°C.

How to fix Zodiac MagnaPool when it shows 'OVER HEAT' and the INFO indicator is lit?
- M
  Molly MillerSep 1, 2025
  If the “INFO” indicator is lit because of OVER HEAT, protect the control box from direct sunlight if it's installed outdoors. Hydroxination will automatically resume once the temperature inside the control box has fallen back down.

What to do if my Zodiac Lighting Equipment displays 'pH LOW' and the INFO indicator is lit?
- M
  Meagan LongSep 5, 2025
  If the “INFO” indicator is lit due to low pH, check the pH level in the pool using a photometer or a test strip. Inspect the pH sensor wiring on the control box and the sensor holder. Check and adjust alkalinity. For further troubleshooting, consult a pool specialist to check the sensor operation using a sensor tester, or try cleaning and calibrating the sensor. If all else fails, consider replacing the sensor.

What causes the 'LOW CONDUCTIVITY' and 'MINERALS' indicator to light up on my Zodiac Lighting Equipment?
- W
  William CareySep 8, 2025
  If the MINERALS indicator is lit due to LOW CONDUCTIVITY, check the water temperature. Measure the mineral concentration in the pool water using a mineral tester or a test strip, then add minerals to the pool to keep the level at 4000 ppm. Also, check the condition of the cell plates.
