Also, make sure your water feed line isn't obstructed with algae and debris.
I cleaned the water line a few days ago and it was fine for 3 or 4 days and then it's acting weird again! There is enough reagent for another month of testing ! Please
Help.. also test a failed again just now. I have cleaned the water line about 5 days ago

If you cleaned the line and it worked for few days and now you have issue again I’d say try to clean better a second time and see what happens. If it works again for few days I’d say you are on to something. If it does not then will have to look else where.
 
Part of the water intake tube is clear tubing inside trident. This piece was damaged by the solenoid. So it was losing suction causing my issues. I cut a piece of the black I take tubing and replaced the clear tubing and now its working normally!

I have had to do same thing in past after unit sat for few weeks that same hose was permanently pinched closed from the solenoid squeezing it for to long in same spot. I will assume this could happen to any of the hoses in the spots where they are pinched by solenoids

This will eventually happen to all hoses eventually. But you will notice that all other hoses connected to the other Solinoid is the hard durable type. So those will last longer don't know why they cut the corner on one piece.

Yes I did notice that the hose that you replaced was clear in mine and the rest of them were a black color I’m assuming a different hose material because they felt different and I believe the internal diameter was different either way I fixed mine with a piece of my drain line as well and it’s been working for about five months. I would venture to say that during the trident maintenance that is supposed to be done at the 18 month or whatever all these hoses will be getting replaced
