Intex Saltwater System NO FLOW error

[toesinthesand]

I purchased the intex saltwater system this week for my AGP (which is not an intex brand), I followed the setup instructions, filled the pool with recommended amount of salt and started the SWG. The system seems to work for a couple of minutes then it starts flashing code 90, water flow problems. My return pressure is great, I have done all the troubleshooting listed and still the same problem. I'm wonder if my pump and filtration system is to big for this intex product. Can anybody offer advice or help with this matter?

Did you ever come up with a solution to this problem? I'm having the exact same trouble: green light flashes, goes solid, chlorine generation takes place for about 2 minutes, then code 90. Looks like an air pocket is forming in the chlorine generation chamber. With the saltwater system turn off, running just the filter pump, no air pockets form.

BTW--I doubt it's your pump, because I'm using an Intex 1500 GPH pump.

Update: Looks like I'm getting air into the system somehow. I think it might be coming from my solar collectors, which are currently hooked up after the saltwater system. Maybe I should move the saltwater system and pump on after the collectors. Anybody else have both a solar pool heater and a saltwater system? Any ideas?

I am having the same problem and I do not have a solar pool heater. Anybody find a solution?

i have a saltwater pool system. every time i turn it on the code 12 flashes on for a few seconds then the system turns off automatically. can somebody help me or tell me what to do?

I have experienced the same exact problem with our saltwater system. It seems that there is air trapped in the system although done everything possible to release all the air in the system. I have replaced parts, etc. If anyone knows what to do besides replacing the system for $200 . . . please, let me know.

turn your intex cloranator the other way, make sure arrows going same way as water flow(for low flow)

I am in England - same thing for me, All appears to work on saltwater pump for 2 mins or so then 90 code comes up with alarm, & despite all air release etc, same thing happens every time.
However the very first time IT WORKED FOR 4 hours with no problem, so there can't be anything seriously wrong. Just can't get it to go again.

Is there anyone out there who can help? Does anyone know of an Intex number / email in UK, so I can contact direct?

Many thanks to ANYONE out there!

I wired the little flap up, no more low
