rebuilt this 1500 with new seal kit, piston, brine stem and seal, and new distributor tube.

unit isn't plumbed in backwards. pictures show unit in service position.

why is it drawing brine during refill (during 2nd set of spaces)? Wrong cams? cams installed incorreectly? microswitch? wrong brine stem? also haven't determined if it shuts off after last 2 pins. when i cycle unit manually, it also draws brine during 3rd set of spaces.

currently regen unit manually, shut off after brine draw. works fine that way, minus the saltly water.

that is one seriously old valve. your brine valve appears to be bad. The brine cam is a non timed refill cam.
