Controller locks up when using ATO
#2
Hi Warren, sorry for taking so long to reply, I'm away right now. That does seem a little odd, how long did it work without this happening? At this moment I'm not sure what to think, how much current does the pump draw? Someone just had a similar issue where the display was locking up and it turned out to be lack of power, maybe in your situation as the power supply is aging less power is being put out and when the pump comes on it causes this to happen. Do you have a larger 12v DC power supply to try? I think I sent you a 3.2amp power supply but typically a lot of these don't really put out what's claimed and I have had 2 go bad in the past.
