Rain Bird Error Message and How To Fix It by Replacing the Solenoid Valve

I found my Rain Bird system had and error message and here I show you how to Fix it by replacing the Solenoid Valve. Amazon has them for less than $10 and Prime: http://amzn.to/2ohkju5

Now when I went to my control panel I saw the Err 2 message and that told me that my "Zone 2" valve was not working. My system is approximately 6 years old and I figured I would just go ahead and replace the solenoid to make things simple, rather than trying to trouble shoot the old one.

Hey guys, if you like me and you don't
know anything about Rain Bird or any of
these sprinkler systems, welcome to the
club. I noticed that half of my yard was
turning brown, but I knew it wasn't
because of the sprinkler system. Because
I could hear it run start to investigate
this a little further I see this on my
panels and of course Err 2 doesn't
tell me anything so I go to the internet
and I learn the that's telling me that
there's something wrong with a master
valve or solenoid or something and
so I looked, I'll see if I can show you
guys here down here on the bottom and
number two is the blue wire right there
right so basically what I did is I
headed out and started looking for those
little valve boxes like that one right
there and what I did is I looked and I
found the one that had a blue wire if
that's the case if everything works out
right by going to the hardware store and
picking up this Scylla note i should be
able to fix it and as you can see sand
around this one that one there that I
need to take out because there is no
blue wire so here we go okay so there's
the old solenoid right there we use it
dielectric grease and fill up those
connectors to prevent corrosion so I'm
gonna have to be out here dealing with
this again got it all buttoned up got
the dielectric grease and all the butt
connectors there or the wire nuts rather
this even works alright check it out no
error codes we recycle it to that zone
all right now one word to the wise I got
to tell you about is even after I
replaced that solenoid it did not work
I still had the error code so then what
I had to do was go in there and press
the off button to erase that error code
so it would work but i'm proud to say
I got it working
and hopefully those brown spots will go
away shortly ask away if you have any
questions man I've researched this Hulk
over the Internet rainbirds website I
feel like I got this figured out now
