https://www.manualslib.com/manual/859287/Culligan-Medallist-Series.html?page=8 Quoting from link to free manual shown: FAILURE MODE There are certain conditions that can be interpreted by the circuit board as a failure of the drive motor or motor position switch. Upon failure detection the control will cease further operation. A telephone hand set symbol will be shown in the upper left corner of the display and the error code will be shown. Listed below are the different error codes. 1. Motor Always Turning Error code "E1" occurs when the circuit board detects changes in the motor program switch when the motor is not supposed to be turning. The phone icon and "E1" will be lit in the display. 2. Motor Never Turns The Culligan Medallist Series control is equipped to detect no change in the motor position when the motor is supposed to be turning (motor or piston locked in a frozen position). The AccuSoft circuit board will apply power to the motor for 20 seconds. If there is no change in the motor homing or position switch, the control will power down for 1 minute. The circuit board will repeat this procedure two more times in an attempt to remove the obstruction. If no movement has been detected, the control will permanently power down and a phone icon and an "E2" will appear in the display. 3. Homing Error Error code "E3" occurs when the circuit board detects when the control is unexpectedly in the home position. The phone icon and "E3" will be lit in the display. Error Display Cancellation The error code display can be removed by removing the power to the control for 1 minute. After clearing an error condition, the control will default to the factory settings when power is restored.

Either the electric valve has failed, or the line is plugged. Try blowing out the water line first and free it up from buildup and then if it seems unobstructed, check the valve function. Salt crystal buildup is common.

I think you need to replace some parts with the Culligan-set 01016267 . I did have the same problem and after it was replaced everything went just as normal.

the regeneration period is set on the water consumption after a set amount of water is used , it should regenerate automatically use quality water filters prior to the softener to remove mud and particles that all affect the regeneration process regeneration is the process of removing the elements that have been collected in the machine and to replenish the salt content in use

At the top of the conditioner, there is a tube running across the back of the head near the water line connections. the tube has push knobs on each end. With the blue knob pushed fully inward (knob up against the barrel of the valve / tube), water is routed through the water conditioner where it is softened. Water may be bypassed around the conditioner by pushing the red knob fully inward. Avoid "slapping" the valve when shifting from one position to another. see manual here: https://www.culliganmidmissouri.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Estate2-Softener-Operating.pdf

Questions the plastic piece that hits the pin for the main piston does anyone know that part number or name of that piece

Call Culligan on this problem.

The main piston is frozen up and needs to be replaced. It gets bent due to poor design. Culligan sells a rebuild kit for this that includes the piston, seal kit, brine refill piston and sleeve along with a new metal bracket to prevent the shaft on the main piston from bending and causing this issue again. There is also a new C clip for the drive gear on top.

A lot of people mistake the "S" as a 5. The error dispaly says "CS" which means call service. You probably have a gasket hung up and need a new seal pack.

Culligan is offering a special on water softener tuneups. Call your local dealer and request a service.

Most people don't think to plug this type of thing into a surge protected outlet, or surge protector. Probably when the power came on there was a power surge and fried the system. Sometimes homeowners insurance will cover things like that.

what does c5 mean? I can't get it off the digital face and had to by pass to shut off.

I have seen salt attack aluminum like that but nowhere else

By-pass the softener, unplug the control for two minutes, plug back in, put unit back in service (return by-pass to normal position). If unit continues run it has a bad seal pack assembly in the valve and it would need to be replaced. Or if it is stuck in backwash cycle this may home out the board and return valve to service position. If neither works you will need to call for service.RJH2O
