Jandy Aquapure 1400 Error 172/186

Aquapure spit out another 172/186 error on the SWG today. This will be the third sensor since Sept. 2008. The equipment is under warranty for 3 years, but isn't this a bit ridiculous. I have a very clean pool with very little debris coursing through the system. Several inspections by myself and others have produce no known damage to the sensors. They just go bad. Is this the norm? If so, when the system is out of warranty I'll probably cap the sensor and just dump bleach in the pool every couple of days and shock when we go on vacation. Not really seeing the advantage here if the cost to replace the system is close to $1000.00 if it is going to continually breakdown. Any thoughts here, what am I doing wrong?

"Mr. McKittrick, after very careful consideration, sir, I've come to the conclusion that your new SWG system sucks."

Just a little War Games for ya...

The failure is more than likely not your fault. It is my opinion that Jandy is having a problem with the sensors. I don't know how you have been getting these warrantied, but i would go to Jandy this time, so you may get a "fresh" one and not one off the shelf(from the warranty station) that could have a problem like the rest.

When you call Jandy, tell them the way several have already failed, and what they are going to do about it, if it keeps happening after warranty? Because for the price, they should be lasting longer than 3 years. If they ignore you and keep saying that they are only warranted for X amount of days, ask to talk to their supervisor, and start over.
