We had a power failure. Two days later, I realized my plants were dry. I tried to run the drip system, but kept getting "Err". My box looks like the one on the right in the video. Resetting fixed the problem. I live in Arizona's Sonora Desert, so lack of water is serious for plants. Thanks for the video. The reset is not intuitive, but it's easy when you follow the instructions.

Thank you so much for teaching us this method of re-setting🙏 Your explanation was very clear and easy to understand. I tried this about 8 times, but finally held on the re-set button for about 12 seconds before releasing my fingers. It really worked. Thank you again!

Thank you very much for your video and clear instructions. After several attempts to reset the controller after a power surge, despite having a power surge plug, I was not successful. I followed your instructions and it worked the first time. I was able to reprogram the controller to start irrigating again. Thank you for sharing your expertise.

You may have to hold the reset button about 10 seconds (not mentioned in the video.). Also, don’t give up. It took me about 8 tries before it worked.

For everyone having this or similar type of irrigation controller: I just refurbished the older model of this Hunter Pro C. No chance to reset, display occasional function but no ability to control anything and set up time, zones, date, time, year, reset.... I replaced 8 electrolytic capacitors which dried out due to sun hitting the unit directly. Zebra connector between display and the controller board cleaning, shimming to achieve the best I could to see all display segments. Some still do not show properly but controller works and could be set for watering. Internal battery 3 V like in a desk top PC replacement. Some mentioned here that they replaced the 9 V battery and still no memory function. This 3V battery is responsible to hold programed zones and has to be de-soldered and put new in so it is little technical skill to do. Pricing for parts is about 10 bucks plus the work someone does compare 100 - 200 bucks for new unit. Prevent, if you can the sun hitting it directly, you can place there some obstacle in front of it.

Thank you so much.don’t know what we will do without KZfaq.

Hey this worked great. We had a power transformer blow and totally screwed up the sprinkler system. Did a reset and BAM worked perfectly. Thank you so much!

thank you very much. Mine was not blank, but kind of symbols and L shape things on the screen and I reset and turned back to normal. you saved me money and panic. appreciated.

Wow thank you! I had a power interruption and 5 out of 6 zones stopped responding. Did this? HOLDING those three buttons, 12:00 on the display. Back to controlling all zones.

Thanks, successful re set.

Thanks a lot, very helpful.

You just saved me a lot of money! Thanks!

Very helpful tutorial. Thx for posting it.

excelent tutorial mr

Thank you! That was very helpful.

My problem is that I have set my system 10 minutes each station but then when it finishes it restart again from station one it does not stop can you please help me with that.

I’m not sure but my older version of this will not stop cycling. It just keeps going through the 7 stations over and over again and doesn’t stop unless I go out there and physically turn the system off.

Hi. i have a hunter pro c the newer version. some days now when the program starts the water is coming out from two zones simultaneously ( for example when it goes to zone 2 the zone 10 is also watering ). can you help me?

thank you you're awesome

I tried to reset mine numerous times but it wouldn't reset...it goes back to what is on it? So I've had it off for numerous months now. I can only assume because it won't factory reset...its broken? I've had this box for approximately 6 yrs.

Same question as the others, how do I reset the Hunter X-core controller?

Im trying to reset the System to clear various times and programs and I cannot get it to to show 12:00. :( have tried several times and end up with different numbers or time.....not 12:00 and when i Press buttons not one of them respond to touch.....everything seems stuck!

We have a new Hunter ICC2 controller with 16 stations or 2 8-station modules. All the sprinklers are working fine on programs A and B. I need to add a program C (or D)for a specific area but it will not recognize any stations above 8. I've sent a note to Hunter customer service but wondered if anyone else has this problem? Thanks.

what if I don't see the water mark by itself only the circled one comes up? what do I do?

Good video. However I have a zone that will work when I run it manually as a single station. However in a program, it will not run. There is water running to the heads, but none of them pop up. Any suggestions?

hello, I have a fairly new (Blue faceplate model) hunter Pro C Controller, Installed in October 2019. it is set up for 16 stations, with the PCM 300 Then on top the PCM 900, and stations 14 15 and 16 are not being used. However The controller Reads Err 14, err 15, and err 16, then forgets everything that was programmed into the controller, even my easy retrieve memory is gone. every time I re-program The Controller, it still does the same thing. Stations 14 15 and 16 have no wires to them, they are just there for expansion. please help, Thank you for your time, DylBuilder1.

What happens if you disconnect the connector ribbon with the power on? I have gone through troubleshooting and settings the program, I'm not getting water, however, the sprinkler Icon is present. Your suggestion?

After resetting X-CORE - I cannot run the ONE TOUCH MANUAL START AND ADVANCE. How can I fix this? When I press and hold the right arrow button for 2 or more seconds nothing happens. Thanks

Thanks a lot!

I used to have five zones in the control, but somehow my zone number five is missing. How do I get it back? Thank you!

After resetting my xc 600 sprinkler system I now only have zones 1 through 4. Two zones are missing zones 5 and 6. How do I get back those other two zones 5 and 6 that are not showing in the panel?

What is the problem if the display is blank or very faint, but the controls are still operating?

If I just manually run a program all six of my zones water.l On setting the program set times only four zones show for each program. What happened to the other two zones???

My system continues to go through all stations, starts back at one and goes again, over and over, how do I make it stop after one watering?

my numbers are garbled with 7 and 8 and wont allow me to work the system. tried replacing battery but did nothing. do i need an entire new box or new control panel or what do i need?

So i have 9 zones, for some reason now it only has three zones that show up and will water. Not sure what happened to the other 6 zones. i tried to reset which it did and the zones came back but they wont set not to be watered. Not sure why can you help

Hi Hunter..I've tried resetting an xcore 6 station controller with the same method but it doesn't reset. What do I do?

I have massive amounts of BRIEF power outages where I live. These power outages are roughly 1 or 2 seconds long. Every time this happens, it resets my Sprinkler system. I changed out the battery in the Sprinkler system. Still resets. Solutions?

Any tips for making a remote controller work?

hi hunter, how do you reset an x core controller?

Ok
