which way do you set the timer switch up or down, mine runs forever no matter what

Very bottom switch and set the clock above for the amount of hours you want the filter on

It flips down for the timer. Try unplugging it, then resetting the timer dial, then plugging it back in and flipping the switch down. Hope this helps!

Hi Sandy,My 2500 filter pump has a dial on it that is numbered 1-5. One means one hour, two means two hours etc.The switch only controls the on and off function. I hope this is clear enough. We love our pump and it really is keeping our pool clean and our solar heating pad pumping warm water into the pool. I hope this helps.

Check to see how you have the timer set. It more than likely is set to do that. I personally have mine set to run all the time. It has been running that way for 8 years with no problems.

the settings count down to zero then start counting up to who knows where. You aren't programming the timer so much as you are initializing its functions. I would not buy this timer again for a multitude of reasons and plan to replace it soon. I do not like this timer and am sorry I bought it.

There is a switch on the top of the unit labeled "ON" and "TIMER". You choose the position "ON" if you want the outlet to remain on.

It turns off at the timer was set but it turns back on again without any motions. So basilly, it's on all the time.

Have had mine for a few days, and I can't get the timer button to work. Any clues?

I would say install it with the switch in the "on" position, then. Once you set the timer to turn the switch "off" the moving track should be able to force the on/off toggle switch to "off" and all should be fine.

it always shows 00:00 as it is in the picture or shows the last timer you set up or the time when you stop it . no on/off switch

You have to hold down the button. Also the manual says not to run it continuously for more than 1 minute at a time, which seemed odd to me.

When you use the timer it turns off automatically. You probably used the "on" position not the timer.

Hi Julie: Sounds like you have successfully powered the digital timer, but not the switch. The switch side does not power the circuit. You can run the + wire from the battery to one side of the switch and continue the + wire out of the switch to the item you are controlling. Run the - wire directly from the battery to the item you are controlling. IN other words, the digital switch only controls one of the leads to the load, which you must power. You can also just run a jumper from the + side of the timer to the + side of the switch to power the circuit instead of going all the way back to the battery. Hope this helps.

Each of the three timers are independent. You can only set them to count down, but when they reach zero, they start to count up until you press the stop/start button at which time the timer stops but the time remains in the display. If you then press stop/start again, the timer will resume counting up. To set the timers back to zero, press clear/memory.

I haven't experienced that issue. I was thinking though, do you have a timer set? I am sorry. Please let us know how you get this resolved.

you connect the 2 timer in series or parallel? (if series the timer front and back in the circuit may cause the on off problem)You are saying the timer can not switch to auto and the manual function also not working? Had you check your supply at the timer terminal is it connected correctly?The timer activation time "on" and "off" is set correctly?Do you set it to be turn on and off on specify day or everyday (need set and select day/days)

There is a switch that selects either "on" or "timer". The "on" position always powers the connected device regardless of your on/off settings on the timer wheel. The "timer" position controls the device based on the timer wheel settings. If in the "timer" position, and the setting on the timer wheel has powered on the device, there is no way to turn the device off from the timer.
