uv fault indicator

[marc1976]

Can anyone tell me why my fault indicator light is on?

 

[koikeepr]

help explain what this is?

Can you give a make and model perhaps to help us?

hi i dont know the make as came with my five stage filter i do know it is a 30watt to describe it the best i can it is like a 3 inch pipe with inlet and out let coming out at right angles at either end there is a box situated on the side of the pipe which has power lead going to it, it has a bulb that illuminates when power is on and a bulb that states fault indicater next to it this should be of but is staying on even after changing bulb. would this come on if uv needs cleaning inside or is it broken ??

Does the bulb light up ?

 

[stroppy]

do you know the make of the filter it came with ?

 

[koikeepr]

It sounds like you're ballast might be kaput!

some uv's have a lamp Indicator light when on its that means your light is working.

 

[marc1976]

the uv is a seperate unit to the filter and the bulb is working the light that is on clearly states next to it that its a fault warning light

KOIKEEPR do you mean like a resister inside if so can this be fixed or replaced ??
