tunze multicontroller is beeping loudly....

[zemuron114]

I have a multicontroller with a 6100 and a 6080 (i think) hooked up to it. Each side comes on for around 30 seconds then switches to the other one. The multicontroller beeps very loudly and steadily ONLY when the 6100 comes on. When it switches back to the smaller tunze the beeping stops. Then it continues again when it goes to the 6100. Beeps steadily until it switches off the 6100. What the hell is going on? Its driving me crazy. I have to unplug the 6100 in order for it to stop beeping and then if i plug it back in it will do the same beeping thing.

please help!

Your 6100 has frozen up. It's alarmed to let you know somethings wrong. Scared the ---- out of me first time it happened. You have to take the front out. Pull out the impeller shaft and clean it, as well as the center portion of the pump. It's probably clogged with corraline or something at the base where it spins.

LMK if this doesn't work

zemuron114,

Yes the Capt is right the drive unit (Impellor) needs cleaning most likely. Try removing the complete assembly refer to your instructions for cleaning, soak in vinegar overnight/clean and try again. the beeping driver (Metal box) is an alarm to tell you something is wrong.
