   I am having an issue with Rainbird 751 heads being stuck on and/or off in auto mode.  The solenoids check out fine.  I have pulled the foot valves and blown compressed air through the PRS port holes.  All of the O-rings appear to be in good condition.  Any other procedure I shuld try that I am overlooking?

   if the icm/solenoid is too tight or too loose this could be an issue

   Make sure the portal under the solenoid is clear and the on/off/auto control stem is in the correct position.  Sometimes with an older head just the smallest increment can make a difference in the operation.
