Nothing lights up on your Hayward salt system (no display, no lights)

Nothing lights up anymore, neither the screen nor the lights? Very often it’s the GFCI outlet, not the unit. Do these checks in order.

Applies to: Aqua Rite / AquaRite, Aqua Trol / AquaTrol, Swim Pure, Aqua Rite PRO (the rectangular model), Pro Logic, Aqua Logic, OmniLogic and OmniPL.

Aqua Rite, Aqua Trol, Swim Pure and Omni

1. Try another outlet. The GFCI outlet is often the cause: press its Reset button and test it with a lamp.
2. Still nothing? Turn the power off and check the yellow 20 A fuse in the unit. Replace it if needed, with the same type.
3. The fuse is good: the board is faulty and needs a repair.
4. The new fuse blows too: don’t replace it again. The whole unit needs a repair, not just the board.

Pro Logic, Aqua Logic and Aqua Rite PRO

1. Find the GFCI outlet next to the board, press Reset and test the outlet with a lamp.
2. The system works again: it was the outlet.
3. The outlet works, but the system stays off: the main board needs a repair.
4. The outlet doesn’t work: have an electrician check the power.

To remove the board before you send it: video for the Aqua Rite · video for the Pro Logic and Aqua Logic.
