I have two different valves and two different problems. My Orbit 57626 will work when I loosen the bleed screw, but won't turn on when my controller sends power to the solenoid. The solenoid works properly, both with the power on and off. The diaphragm looks like new. If power is on and I manually open the screw, water flows. If I close the screw, water continues to flow till power is turned off to the solenoid. The controller can turn this valve off, but not on. What can I check next?
My second valve says WaterMaster 57223. That one works fine with the controller, but when I turn the lever for manual operation, I can hear some water flowing, but it isn't enough to turn on the sprinklers. It's as if the lever isn't pushing the solenoid plunger far enough away to let water flow. What do you recommend for this problem?
