M5 Supreme Circles
by: BW

My Dolphin M5 Supreme has worked flawlessly for 7 years until recently. I set it in the pool and it just moved in circles, one set of tracks/brushes turned normally, the other set did not. I noticed the center brush assembly lost some bearings on one side, so I ordered and installed a new assembly. By hand it moves freely, but when powered on, it still only runs in circles. I'm stumped. Any ideas? Thank you.

Nautilus Dolphin CC After cord replacement
by: Darrin

We have had a Nautilus Dolphin CC unit for about 2 seasons. It has run perfectly until or puppy chewed up the cord from the power supply to the unit that goes in the water. We purchased a new supply cord (12M S50). After replacing the cord the unit ran for about 15 minutes and then stopped moving. We can turn it off and back on and it will run a short amount of time and then stop again. It also seems to not run the same as it did before. (ex. Before it would travel across the pool and back and forth and up the walls, and cover a lot of area. Now it may only go a couple feet before stopping and returning and it a lot of the time not keep the from of the unit flat to the floor). I'm not sure if something went wrong in replacing the cord or if the cord is the wrong size. The cord did seem to be a bigger diameter than the previous cord.

Any help would be appreciated.

Restoring my Dolphin DX3
by: Max

I got a Dolphin DX3 that stop working. After troubleshooting found out that the problem was a bad PCB. Unfortunately, no one sells it by itself, since they offer the whole motor assy for $500. So, I bypassed the PCB and placed instead a voltage stepdown device to feed my motors with 13 VDC. Then I use a timer for the power supply to set the working cycles, and my unit is back to work again...! Sorry Maytronics guys..you can keep your $500 assembly.

It just arrived today that we were exciting to have the new Nautilus CC Plus. It works nice for about two hours and then it stopped. I pulled it out to clean the filters and then put it back in the water. I turned on the battery box but all the lights were flashing. I can't find anything in troubleshooting what the flashing lights means. The on/off power, and led 1-3 lights were flashing. What does it means? I unplugged the power supply and wait for 10 minutes and put it back on. same results. What is happening? I tried to call the 888 customer service but they are closed so i'm guessing they won't be open until Monday.

Problem rotor motor solved, but now need diagram of DC 6H DIAGMU02421 circuit board.
by: Anonymous

We own a Dolphin Diagnostic 2001 since 2000 and have used it infrequently.

This year the rotor motor did not start and the robot stopped working. After disassembling the motor unit and GR 63x25 Junker rotor motor it proved that one of the brushes on the motor was sticking and made no contact. This could be solved easily.

I further discovered that the Diagnostic DC 6H DIAGMU02421 circuit board created some smoke and I would like to have it repaired. Can anyone tell me where to find the diagram of this board?

We use the Dolphin very infrequently and we will not consider buying a new one. It just bothers me to waste good material for only a small defect.

I have removed the filter plates to see if that was the issue but it still will not climb up the sides. It is flowing as much water out of the top as it did before the liner replacement. Just curios if you have run into this issue and do you know if new liners may have a coating for packaging purposes that will wear off in time. Thanks for your help

dolphin Primal X3 stopped moving

My primal x3 worked perfect last week. Today I turned it on and the powersupply that was replaced 3 months ago by maytronics seems to work fine, however the robot does not move. Completely dead. I checked the output of the powersupply and am getting 29.1 volts. Cable looks fine. Am I assuming its a dead motor? I just would like to confirm as I've never been thrilled with this robot anyway, so if the motors dead, I'll buy something else before bothering to repair.

Dead Short.

Somewhere is a broken wire. If the power supply powers up without the robot plugged in then go on to disconnecting the cable from the robot and turn on the power supply with the addition of the disconnected cable. If no blown fuse then the problem in in the motor case and this will need replacing.

Dolphin 2002 runs for 45 sec and stops
by: Tom

Hi,
I have loved my Dolphin for the past 10 years. Runs fine. I have had it tangled in a few goggles and toys here and there over the years, but it did not seem to affect it's performance. Now it just started cutting out after 45 seconds of the start-up process. I checked the impeller and it was definitely not starting up along with the drive motors. I took it apart and all of the bearings seem fine. The timing track teeth definitely are worn to tiny triangles. I opened the motor and had to clean out the "moisture preventer" bag which had opened up and spilled inside. Motors seem sealed though, so no problem. Without any load, the motors still cut out after 45 seconds (although the impeller is now running fine). Power pack seems to put out a consistent 31-35VDC. There is a click heard inside the motor pack when it cuts off. Could it be the circuit board in the motor?
Thanks,
Tom

Dolphin DX3 power supply lights flash and then go out
by: MJ

I have a DX3 that is 2 years old now. Worked fine up until now.

When I plug the power supply into the outlet all the lights (including the on button) flash momentarily and then go out. Nothing else happens. Dolphin does not move and I can't seem to get the power supply to turn on.

The lights flash again momentarily when the power supply is unplugged.

What could be causing this? Is it fixable?

Dolphin M4
by: Brown


I am having a problem with my Dolphin Supreme M4 by Maytronics.
When I turn on the power supply the impeller turns for about 1 second and then stops. I have turned it by hand and it seems to be free. It is a little stiff but does not seem excessive . If your turn it swiftly by hand it will turn but stops quickly. It does not continue to spin freely. This appears normal to me.
I have checked the prongs on the power supply.
#1 is at 27.7 v
#2 is at 2 volts, it surges to approximately 4 or 5 v after it has been on for 3 or 4 seconds. This appears that it might be the same instant that the impeller turns for one second. The voltage returns to 2 v
I can turn the power supply off, wait a few seconds and turn it back on and it will repeat the same process.

I would appreciate any insight you could give me. I really need this fixed. It is an awesome machine and I don’t want to start the year without it.
Thanks

What do the buttons to the right of on mean?
by: Anonymous

1. is it ok to leave the robot hooked to his blue tubing in the pool one or 2 days turned off?

2. the blue tube likes to crimp and get tangled, have you come out with a better one that does not do that?

3. My husband became disabled so I have to do the pool. I have been a good sport about this task and Herman (our Pool Man Robot) helps by doing a fantastic job! Wish we had this years ago!!! But are there any easier or new ways to clean the bag or new type bags, I struggle putting in back on.

4. I can't find my file right now and want you to tell me what the reset and other buttons to the righ of the on button mean and do. If you call me
I can go to it and you can explain over the phone

Owner's robot worked 1 minute at a time, fixed
by: ADMIN

This comment just came in from an owner in Israel.

"My Dolphin robot was working for one minute and then stopping. The robot was just fine. The problem was with the power supply. One the four wires connected to the PCB on right inside the power supply was burnt due to heavy current load. It was barely connected and this was the reason for the problem. Once I replaced it, the robot started working again."

Bought our Dolphin just 3 years ago, it has JUST run out of warranty, and it has JUST stopped working. The unit was working fine, then just stopped. I took the whole thing apart. Tested the power supply and it's outputting correctly. Tested the input at the motor, and it seems to be correct, but when I tested the circuit board in the motor, it seems power is coming to the board, but not going out to the motors. Is it possible to buy JUST the circuit board? If not, what's the next step. I do NOT want to have to buy a whole new motor. After only 3 years of use.

Correction, The distance between the inner center and outermost ring is 3/8 inch.
I tried to prop it up with some glue. I was thinking of cutting it between the smooth part & the threads, about 3/4 inch down the shaft.

This caused the pool cleaner to lose all power, as you can see, the outer connection is worn down.

I purchased my 2nd dolphin cleaner last year. The first one lasted 10 years with no problems. The new one stopped working last week. I called Maytronics and was directed to a two page troubleshooting guide(worthless). When I turn the cleaner on the fan will run for 3 seconds, off for 3 seconds. After 3or 4 times the brushes will turn about 6 inches and that's it. Any suggestions? Is there an authorized repair company in the Maryland area? I took it to Leslie's Pool's where I purchased it but they don't service this cleaner.

I found part of the bag ripped off an stuck in the tracks, stopping the unit. Got the rag out but unit still won't move. I have checked voltage to drive motor and I have the correct amount. What now ? I can find zero pictures showing how to get to the pc board or drive mech.

Dolphin diagnostic ECB
by: Grant Cooley

I have a 2004 maytronics diagnostic which I purchased when my 2001 died. My 2004 quit working so I started trouble shooting both units. Power supplies on both are good, power cable on both are good, impeller motors on both are good, drive motors on both are good. When I opened the sealed unit on the 2004 unit I found R15 burned. If I jumper around it the drive motor will run, the impeller motor will run intermittent, the LED is blinking. The resistor appears to be a 6.51 ohm. Can I buys resistor or just send in the ECB?
On the older unit there is one large resistor which appears burnt, not sure of the value. Any way to get the ECB repaired or get a set of schematics?
After spending over $2,000 for the two of these, I really do not want to spend another thousand dollars when the total cost of repair parts would be less than five dollars

automatic feature not working
by: Anonymous

We followed the instructions to have the robot clean automatically for the week but it won't work. It starts right up cleaning and shuts off automatically but it doesn't do it again the following day. Can you help us? Thanks!Laurie

If your Dolphin moves a little bit and the impeller spins, but then stops after about 15 seconds it could be the graphite powder used on the motor getting onto the control circuit board.

Open up the unit and vacuum the circuit board to remove the graphite from the board. I had the same problem as you reported and when I did this the rover works and I have not had an issue since.

Help
by: Anonymous

We have a Dolphin 3002 pro, it has taken to starting in the normal way but one side only starts slowly in one direction then stops. The other side works fine until the safety kicks in and the whole machine stops. I have taken off the side plate to check for debris, there is none. I found the bearings in one guide wheel had come apart so I replaced this from my stock. I then put everything back together to test but this has not cured the problem.

Any ideas?

Dolphin design flaw
by: Justindm1

I had an issue with the impeller spinning for 10 seconds and then never turning again until the unit was power cycled.

I think I have worked out the issue that caused this,which is that the carbon powder that they use on the motor gets out of the motor and onto the circuit board after a year or so. Every time you take the rover out and invert it to clean the bag you are shaking the powder around inside the unit.

When I opened the watertight box inside the cleaner I noticed a lot of the carbon powder on the circuit board. As carbon is a conductor I wondered if it was shorting the sensor circuit and so blew hard on the circuit board. When I power cycled the cleaner this time it started working normally.

If you have issues with your pool cleaner and have tried everything else then open up the watertight box and use a vacuum cleaner to such up any carbon on the circuit board and see if this fixes the problem.

Dolphin suggestion when the cleaner is being assembled when the wires to the circuit board have been attached a quick spray of polyurethane on the circuit board would stop this issue.

Hi, I have a Dolphin easykleen, and I have problems with the inclination sensor it's broken (due the rust) it's a plastic square box with an small ball inside and it has an infrared emisor and photoresistor to detect the inclination.
Where can I find the characterictics of this ir led and photoresistor or replace the complete sensor?
Please it's very important because the robot only have this problem to start to work!

Thanks on advance

Cable Plug into Power Supply Burnt Out
by: Anonymous

Hi, Thanks for your help. One of the male pins on the plug attached to the long cable has burnt out and broke off in the female plug on the power supply. It is the pin that connects to the white wire. I realize that only two of the pins are used and I've swapped the bad pins for the good pins. This doesn't seem possible on the male plug. Can you make any suggestions. Awesome product by the way. Hey, while we're at it, is there a way to make my old cable "tangle-proof" like the newer models?

Thanks again.

Please help me find parts
by: Brian

Looking to replace the two soft rubber blue pads that have 7 little pegs on one side and four rectangle molds sticking out on the other side. They fit on the pink plastic bracket around the bottom insides like a brush guard or something. They are a little under 8.5 inches long and 2 inches wide. Both fell off and will not stay in anymore. Email me at brianLbazar@verizon.net

tips
by: Anonymous

one thing to note, if the unit stop running and the power supply is on, usually the motor is the culprit, if the power supply is off then the power supply is usually bad. if both shut off then there is a short somewhere in the system.

My Dolphin Is Sick
by: Randy z

Hi, I have a Dolphin Diagnostic. it has been working fine but recently stopped working. When I power it up it moves a little bit reverses then stops. I have been told that it may be the board inside the robot. can you tell me if this is the problem? Or where can I bring it in my area for repair? and is this an expensive repair, as the unit was costly to begin with, I don't want to be shocked by a large repair bill.
i am in the 07827 New Jersey area.
Thank You

Most credit card will double the original manufacturer's warranty. If this applies to you, be sure to tell the credit card company that the machine broke outside the original warranty period

time limit in water?
by: Anonymous

Is there any maximum amount of time that a Dolphin pool cleaner can be left in a pool? Do i need to remove it every so many hours to let it dry out? Someone told me that the warranty would not be any good if I left the dolphin in the pool for too many hours, but I can't find any information about this. Thank you for your advice.

My dolphin has stopped working
by: Gordon

I have a Dolphin Dynamic. I don't remember precisely when I bought it but I would estimate it to be about 3-4 years old. In the past year it has started to operate poorly. Currently, when I turn it on at the caddy, it goes through its normal start up routine (pivoting then setting off in a straight line) and runs for about 30 seconds, making perhaps two passes. Then it slows down, the impeller stops turning, it keeps crawling along at a slower and slower speed and then stops. If I turn it off for a minute then turn it back on, it does the same thing -- runs for less than a minute then stops. I have cleaned the bag and washed it in the washing machine as recommended by Dolphin USA Customer Service. I have checked the tracks and interior for any blockages or foreign objects. Everything looks clean. What could the problem be? I only use this machine for a few months of the year, and not very often at that. I have a weekly pool service that vacuums and cleans my pool. The unit is stored in its caddy under a roofed pool cabana and we live in California where it is not subjected to freezing winter weather. Total hours of use on the system aren't that many. Surely your product should last longer than this? Can you please help me with this?
Thanks!

Dolphin impeller not moving
by: whitesbj

I have a 4 year old Dolphin Diagnostic, starting last year it would start to move and the impeller would start sucking water, but after a few minutes it would stop sucking water and try to climb the side wall over and over for hours but could not because there was no suction from the impeller. It is now basically useless.

Impeller not clogged but not turning
by: Anonymous

My Dolphin Diagnostic Advantage would make a little move forwards then a little move back and stop. I checked the drive train and it was basically clean. Now it runs longer 6-8 feet and stops. I noticed the impeller is not spinning. I don't know if it was originally, but isn't now and isn't clogged.

Is this a repairable problem?

Fuses
by: Anonymous

The older power supplies, may or may not have a fuse housing depending on what circuit card is inside the unit. Most of them have a fuse, which is accessible on the outside rear housing of the power supply.
