Help with Maxspect Gyre 280 wavemaker

[larrybarette91]

I have a Maxspect XF280 Gyre wave-maker, and the controller is no longer functioning. It is not turning on, and the cord sparks when plugged in.

Does anyone know where I can buy a new controller? I cannot find it anywhere. Not sure if anyone knows if there is anything else compatible to work as a controller?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately, these are no longer manufactured, but you can use the XF 280 with the Hydros Wave engine controller. There is a 2-pump and 4-pump version. You need the adapter linked below to connect the pump to the wave engine.
