Apex BOB issues?? Floats work one day, and don't the next.

[Reefahholic]

Anybody else having breakout box issues with float switches?

One day my Float 1 will work, the next it won't. Same with a few other switches. This is dangerous if you ask me. I have 4 floats and need them to function at all times. Sump Low, Sump Low Fail, Skimmer High, & Topoff Low.

I've checked wires, replaced wires, and still having same issues. It will work for a while and then stop. I'm scared of flooding my floor or burning up a pump.

Anybody have any suggestions on how to fix this?

Do you have a multimeter you can use to test resistances and voltages across your switches?

Are you testing by watching the fusion interface? For me that always updates really slowly and unpredictably.

I've had a similar problem. I have a door switch on my stand and I have my apex programmed to turn on the sump light when I open the door. I have had plenty of times the experience where I will close the door and the light won't go off for a minute or two. Not sure why, never investigated since it's not crucial to me but I think this is what you might be experiencing.
