Check pulse timer board for 120 VAC pulse between each numbered
terminal on timer board and solenoid common terminal. Repair or
replace timer if necessary.
Open or short circuit in wiring between pulse timer board and
solenoids

repair kit if necessary.
Pinched or plugged tubing between solenoid and diaphragm valve.
Inspect tubing and replace if necessary.
Continuous passage of compressed air through one of more
blowpipes
¼” O.D. tubing or fittings disconnected, leaking or broken.
