How to fix your Kenmore water softener when the display doesn't work

Lack of electrical power, a failed power transformer or a faulty timer can prevent the water softener display from lighting up.

1. Check the electrical outlet by unplugging the water softener and plugging a small lamp or appliance into the outlet to check for power. Reset the house circuit breaker for the outlet if the outlet is dead.
2. If the electrical outlet is okay, check the transformer wiring connections to the timer (with the transformer unplugged from the electrical outlet). Reconnect any loose wires. If the transformer wiring connections are okay, check the transformer's wires for damage and replace the transformer if you find wiring damage.
3. If the electrical outlet and transformer are both okay, then you'll likely need to replace the water softener timer because it's not lighting up the display.

What to do when water overflows from the tank

A faulty brine valve assembly or damaged rotor valve can cause the salt tank to overflow.

The brine valve assembly should shut off water flowing into the salt tank when brine water reaches the correct level. Replace the brine valve assembly if it doesn't shut off fill water causing brine water to overflow the tank.

A damaged rotor valve can leak water into the salt tank causing water to overflow the tank. Check the rotor valve for damage and replace the rotor valve if it leaks water into the salt tank.
