No water coming out

[James102]

I collaborated my water genie pump and controller following the YouTube vid and now I'm getting zero water coming out at all ?

Did you set your flow rate to your normal, somewhere between say 30 and 80 ish then do the calibration?

 

[James102]

Oh no I put it to 0 then cal then turned flow upto 35 n and to 99 n nothing

You must set your flow to what you normally use - if you don't know what to set it to then use 50 as a flow. Then run the auto calibration with pole connected and any taps open. When you do the calibration the water should flow out the brush then the flow will reduce as it calibrates.

Well theres no real right or wrong its whatever works for the op. I personally like mine on 35 with 2 x 1.4 pencil jets.

Thanks mate I have limited water so I want to have a flow were it's not going to blast it all in mins but not to slow where im struggling to rinse

Depending what jets / fans you're using and size of jets the flow will be different. We use 40 and have 4 x 1.8mm jets but to calibrate you need to have your pole up and fully extended

Oh do i ? Ok thanks mate

So I set the flow to 0 and then Calabed it so now I have no flow even when putting the flow to 99 so if I set the flow to 35 then re calab it will it start to flow ?

Set flow to your normal then calibrate with water flowing from brush! It takes a min or so to calibrate with water flowing.

There's no flow tho ATM

I am guessing the controller is displaying DE ( Dead end ) This is normal function of the controller so it knows when to stop the pump If a pole tap is closed. If DE is displaying when the taps are all open then the Calibration value is to low. I would agree with the above comments that the first step is to set the flow rate on the controller to the what you would normally use ( 35 ) then ensure all the pole taps are open and all the hose connectors are fully pushed together and not loose.

If the push fit connectors are loose or not fully connected water can not flow.

Next as in the you tube video run auto cal.

So I set my flow to 35 then i tried the cal I had to lower it to zero to auto cal but it comes up to D E I turn it the cal up and water comes out but that's as far as I got I can't disconect my pole because it doesn't shut off so pressure builds up
