Trying to figure out what I did wrong here.
Etherrain 7 with pump control...
I added a 5th valve to my etherrain controller.
According to the wiring instructions, the 5th line goes on the second wire harness in the #2 position. I wired it that way and added the other wire to the commons that are all bundled together. The other valves still work fine but the new valve won't work. I added it in mcsprinklers and named it and assigned a zone and everything. On the zones status page, it has a red light on that valve and says status: valve failure.
The common is connected to the #1 position on the second harness but it looks like it could be wired to both harnesses. Could that be the problem? Does the new valve need to be under pressure to work properly? As it is when I select it, the pump doesn't turn on or anything.
Just wondering what troubleshooting you all would recommend.
Thanks
