Good morning, first time posting here. So I have been having some issues with my Weathermatic irrigation system. I noticed my sprinklers in the back yard were not coming on, as well as my MVP solenoid was broke (MVP box had the manual lever set to on, no wire nuts or waterproofing, and it was flooded). So I replace the solenoid in the MVP box and resolved that issue.
My other issue, which was in part due to my idiocy of not taking a picture first, was when I changed the solenoids for my two vales (one box) in the back, I do not recall how the wiring was set up prior. There are two valves in this one box, but 4 zones. The zone wires just have a piece of insulation stripped off, but the common wire looks to be cut (two strands of maybe 16 gauge wire). There are also 4 white wires (same color as common), but they are not 16 gauge wire, they look to match the wires on the solenoids.
