    WaterGroup STF20-860 Program dial not moving

    I "think" that my problem my be fixed but I'm still worried. After I took apart the meter housing and didn't find any blockage, the program wheel started to move and the softener did regenerate last night. So far so good. After inspecting the meter housing on February 24, I examined and...

    WaterGroup STF20-860 Program dial not moving

    I've just returned from attempting a fix. The impeller appears to be moving freely and I didn't find anything in the meter body that might have been preventing the impeller from moving. The flow straightener was also free and clear. Therefore, I don't believe that I have fixed anything...

    WaterGroup STF20-860 Program dial not moving

    Thank-you again for the help. I've been diverted today (Monday) so I won't get to it until Tuesday. I'll do exactly as you and Bannerman suggest. It will be a little awkward but I believe that I can access the 4 screws. I'll post back with my results.

    WaterGroup STF20-860 Program dial not moving

    Two more questions before I tackle the meter assembly on Monday. First, I suspect that this may be related to my current problem. On about 5 or 6 occasions our water supply has slowed to a trickle. In order to fix the problem, I've done the following: 1. shut off the water supply at the source...

    WaterGroup STF20-860 Program dial not moving

    There is quite some resistance to pulling the cable out of the meter dome. It will pull out about 1" but then stops. Is it OK to force it or is there something else that needs to be disconnected? (The 7/8" nut on meter dome is disconnected) It's late Saturday afternoon as I write so I'm going...

    WaterGroup STF20-860 Program dial not moving

    I've learned over the years not to force anything because it usually screws up something. Therefore, I'll ask the question before I get into "screw-up territory". I have posted a picture of what I believe is the cable between the program wheel and the turbine. I disconnected the 7/8" nut on the...

    WaterGroup STF20-860 Program dial not moving

    I'm going down to have a look now. I'm wondering if there is an exploded parts diagram for this control. I have the softener manual but it doesn't include such a diagram. It would help me visualize what I need to do to look at the turbine. I've Googled the term and found a manual apparently for...

    WaterGroup STF20-860 Program dial not moving

    Yes. The controller looks like your picture. I'll post a picture. In answer to Noyzee1... I'm fairly technically competent and I have time.

    WaterGroup STF20-860 Program dial not moving

    I have a WaterGroup STF20-860 combination water softener and tannins filter. It is about 4 years old and has been working well. However, it now does not automatically regenerate. However, it will manually regenerate. It appears that the program wheel is not rotating as water is used. Therefore...
