Troubleshooting: 

 

 

Problem:  

Click rate does not change as probe is moved. 

 

    

Possible Cause:  

No “Leak Track” in the part of the pool you are testing. 

 

    Solution:   

Move to a different part of the pool and re-check. When you are 

close to the Input Float you should always receive a stronger signal when you 

are pointing the probe away from the Input Float in any direction. 

 

    Possible Cause:  

Signal Processing Unit is not detecting current flow. 

 

    Solution:  

- Check all connections, especially the ground connection 

 

- Move the ground connection to a different location 

- Make sure probe plug is completely inserted into the jack on the   

back of the SPU 

 

- Assure that batteries are good in Booster 

 

- Check probe wire for wear on insulation 

 

- Call Anderson Manufacturing 

 

     Possible Cause:  

Booster not working  properly 

 

Solution: 

Check the output voltage of the booster with a voltage meter. 

Set the meter on “AC” and check between the float plate and the red ground 

clamp with the unit completely hooked up and turned on. The meter should 

read between 10 and 13 volts AC. If voltage reads 0 volts AC check the 

ground cable and float cable for loose or broken wires. Check batteries and 

battery connection in booster. Call Anderson Manufacturing for additional     

assistance. 

 

Problem:   

Random squeals when probe is in water. 

 

    

Possible Cause:  

SPU is receiving too much signal 

 

    

Solution:  

- Turn Power down and re-adjust Sensitivity 

 

- Check wire connections. 

 

- Call Anderson Manufacturing.
