Usually the solenoid just screws on and if you take that off, you can look in and see if a small piece of debris is partially covering the little tube. It could cause the main valve to not get enough pressure to open fully. The same effect could happen if the solenoid is weak. Solenoids do eventually go bad and it should be easy and relatively cheap to replace. Hmmm, I didn't think about taking off the solenoid because it basically sounds like all the other zones, meaning I can hear it. Good advice, I will add that to my list and if I am still having the problem, LOL I am calling in for LANDSCAPE RELIEF.................... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am not going to complain at all because we all know come late July and early August, we are going to wish we had all this rain vs a high water bill from watering the grass. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've thought about putting those in the last couple of years. But, in the interest of full disclosure, I had my tongue at least part way into my cheek when I made that post. Have a great weekend. Looks like more rain. 😂😂😂 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did you check to make sure EVERYTHING is in good working order yet? Laughing at my own damn self because I haven't even fully checked/troubleshooted mine because of the amount of rain we keep getting. My grass looks nice and healthy, so I have totally put off messing with it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
