Error Code 92 On salt Water Pool Cell

by Joe
(Iowa)

After getting a "too much salt" error code I drained a foot out of the pool and filled with fresh water. Still getting error code.

What else can I do or I'm thinking the salt/chlorine machine is broke? Can I bypass the error code?




Thanks for the question Joe

Are you checking the salinity of the water against a manual reading? The salt level might be ok, but you need to manually test the salt water.

The one I use at the Y pool is a Myron Analog Salt Meter. You can see a picture of it here:

You would also need to calibrate the meter. You can use Hayward Goldline GLX-SALTMETER and calibration solution (GLX-CAL-SOL Calibration solution for salt meters, 3200-ppm).

I get our salinity water from TMI Salt Pure.

The YMCA pool has a Cloromatic box that occasionally threw codes. We found out it was the front and back boards. We replaced them and everything was fine.

There's a reason that your cell is throwing a code. I wouldn't try to bypass it. Find out why it's doing it first.

If you have a flow sensor, check that as well. The Y sensor would "salt up" each month so I had to clean it.

You may need to check your control box. The control box manages how much salt and chemicals are added to the water. It controls the amount of power sent to the salt cell.

I don't know the kind you have, but we have a front and back board.

Be testing with a volt meter, we can determine which board is bad or not working properly.

If you're handy with a volt meter, you can do this yourself. Otherwise, contact a qualified pool tech with experience handling your specific salt cell.

Hope this helps and good luck with the pool.
