Rain Dial RD1200 Troubleshooting

Check wire connections and examine and, if necessary, replace the solenoid if some valves are not functioning on the Rain Dial RD1200. Turn switch to the "Run" or "Manual" position, turn "Rain Delay" off, reprogram "Start Times" and the "Skip Day" schedule, and ensure the device is programmed to the correct date and time, if none of the valves are functioning. Turn the solenoid or manual bleed screw clockwise to turn off a valve if it will not shut off on its own. Examine and replace the valve if necessary.

Reset the current time and ensure it is correctly set to AM or PM if the irrigation system controller is irrigating at the incorrect times. Reset the daily watering schedule if it is irrigating on incorrect days.

Examine the circuit breaker panel and wire connections if the Rain Dial RD1200 display is blank. Take out the battery for one minute or replace the battery and reset the time if the display is wrong or the current time is flashing and incorrect.

Examine the irrigation system's wiring for a short circuit and replace any faulty solenoids if the display is flashing while "FUS" and the station number are shown.
