This without doubt is the very best information that I have been able to find on the Clack Valve, your presentation is clear and very easy to understand. Mine is not drawing brine, after checking the injector and the drain line flow control everything looks good, though there is not suction. Any suggestions on how to proceed?
Glad it was helpful! If its not drawing brine, you either hane a bad seal stack, air leak where the brine line meets the brine tank connection or where the brine line meets the control valve. It can also be a bad pick up tune inside the brine tank. Many times people who use PELLET SALT will clog the bottom of the salt tank with salt binder mud. Brine solution can not pass by this sludge.
@@ambassadorscall Did a complete disassembly according the your video, and initiated regen last night. This morning the brine tank is full of water almost to the top, before last night the water level was considerably lower. Also, the readout is stuck at "Fill" and is reading "Salt". There is no suction at the valve, and the stacker appears okay, smooth seals like you mentioned. I replaced the entire drain line several days ago, and the injector is clean. Scratching my head trying to figure out what to do.
Awsome explanation, I have a doubt, in the last part you were showing how to read the history of the softener which includes how many gallons it has filtered, the number of regeneration in its life and all, is there a way to make it zero? I am asking this because a unit that looks very old and used, shows everything zero as if it has never been used, which can be correct as long as no one can override or reset these values. I just want to know if it's possible to make numbers look like it's new even though it's not. Sorry for the long comment, hope to see your thoughts on this asap.cheers!
@@ambassadorscall so that means there is no way to clear out those numbers from the board and will stay like hardcoded, hope I got it correct and thanks a ton for such a quick reply🙏🏻

Bingo, it was the seal stack, installed a new one and we once again have soft water!
What is the problems code 101?
good

Harse.... this would indicate that the electronic board has been replaced

@@Infino985 that is correcr. Its like a cars odometer. Allows the facts to be told on that control valves history
I gave up trying to fix mine..spent $500 in parts..taking it to the dump!
Who sells the stack kit?
The stack is a clack number v3005 on the ws1 contril valve or
V3430 on the ws125 valve.
I can send you one if needed
