Troubleshooting

The troubleshooting chart shows the error codes that

could appear, and the possible malfunctions for each

code.
While an error code appears in the display, all buttons

are inoperable except the SELECT / MENU button.

SELECT / MENU remains operational so the service

person can perform the Manual Advance Diagnostics,

see below, to further isolate the problem.

Procedure for removing error code from dis-

play:

1

.  Unplug transformer from electrical outlet.

2

.  Correct problem.

3

.  Plug in transformer.

4

.  Wait 8 minutes.  The error code will return if

the problem was not corrected.

MANUAL ADVANCE DIAGNOSTICS

Use the following procedures to advance the water

softener through the regeneration cycles to check

operation.
Slide open the salt lid and remove the softener’s top

cover to observe cam and switch operation during

valve rotation.

1

. Press and hold SELECT / MENU for 3 seconds until

“000” shows in the display, then release.

2

. The 3 digits indicate water meter operation as fol-

lows:

000 (steady) = Soft water not in use, and no flow

through the meter.

Open a nearby soft water faucet.
Model EP 7130:  000 to 199 (continual) =

Repeats for each gallon of water

passing through the meter.

Model EP 7140:  000 to 140 (continual) =

Repeats for each gallon of water

passing through the meter.

NOTE:

If you don't get a reading in the display with

faucet open, pull the sensor from the valve

outlet port.  Pass a small magnet back and

forth in front of the sensor.  If you get a read-

ing in the display with the magnet, unhook the

in and out plumbing and check the turbine for

binding (See Figure 30).

3

. The letter “P” and a dash (or dashes) indicate

POSITION switch operation (See Figure 31).  If the

letter appears, the switch is closed.  If the dash

shows, the switch is open.

4

. Use the RECHARGE button to manually advance

the valve into each cycle and check correct switch

operation.

NOTE:

Be sure water is in contact with the salt, and

not separated by a salt bridge (See "Breaking

A Salt Bridge" section).

5

. While in this diagnostic screen, the following infor-

mation is available and may be beneficial for vari-

ous reasons.  This information is retained by the

computer from the first time electrical power is

applied to the electronic controller.

a

. Press the 

r

UP button to display the number of

days this electronic control has had electrical

power applied.

b

. Press the 

s

DOWN button to display the num-

ber of regenerations initiated by this electronic

control since the code number was entered.

AUTOMATIC ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSTICS

This water softener has a self-diagnostic function for

the electrical system (except input power and/or water

meter).  The water softener monitors electronic com-

ponents and circuits for correct operation.  If a mal-

function occurs, an error code appears in the display.
