Fix your internally leaking Orbit!
One star only for your attention...it actually deserves 4, but since all the one star reviews mentioning internal leaking are correct, I thought I'd write this. Same thing happened to mine after a flawless summer of working, then it leaks like a sieve! FIX: remove 4 screws, open unit, notice the tube connection that is becoming separated (askew) and use plyers to squeeze the connection back together (this is where the water is coming out, probably due to too high of water pressure from your spigot or faulty construction of the Orbit, or both). So that it doesn't separate again, use super glue, epoxy or glue putty that hardens within minutes to keep the pieces together forever. I used marine putty from Home Depot). Put the unit back together and there you have it...Fixed!
