Hello everyone. I have been lurking this site among many others in a quest to repair my water softener. The softener continues to drain after it cycles through its processes.
During my expedition, it seems that a seal pack should render my solution. I did replace the o-rings on the brine valve and cleaned up and relubed the main seal (seal pack assy) which looked okay. But, I still have the problem and probably should replace the seals on that assembly.
Now, my trouble lies in the removal of the seal pack assembly and also the eductor.
Seal Pack: the first time I took it out I had to call upon the Powers of Grayskull to pull that darn thing out. There must be a trick or tool to remove it. Please share those tips.
Educator: After taking off the plate, screen and blue restrictor out, I can't seen to pull out the rest of the assembly. It has 4 prong on it but will not budge. I assume there is a trick to removing this too, to which I would enjoy the secrets.
I assume the trick(s), if its not a special tool, that it has to be stopped in a certain cycle or something but I have not a clue.
Thanks for any help.
