Sprinkler System Infinite Resistance

Well last night, my lovely wife remembered an event from last year. “Remember when your Mom and I were gardening and we cut a wire, but we thought it was a telephone wire? Could that be the sprinkler wire?” A lead! Although, if it were a telephone were that should have been noticed by some angry resident. Also there is no sense why it would be alone.

Went out this morning to take a look at this telephone wire and sure enough it’s the sprinkler wire. Why they decided to lay it going around the entire back yard, I don’t know but now I need to connect them with some weather proof connectors.

That difficult fix was made a lot easier by identifying the problem!

Now to figure out why 2 zones don’t kick on manually.
