I just moved into a house with a sprinkler system. This will be the
first time I've owned a sprinkler system. The controller in the
basement says it is a Toro GreenKeeper.

Here's the question. When I manually turn on the sprinklers with it
set to zone A, about half of the stations pop up. When I have it set
to zone B or C and manually turn it on, nothing happens. How do I set
it so all the stations pop up on zone A?


Look at the controller, at the connections to various wires. There
should be one pair coming from the power source (usually a wall wart on
steriods) and one wire to each zone plus a common connection which is
the return wire for all zones.

See if you can locate the zone A, B & C connections. If there are wires
on A & B and none on C, then C is unused. Check the wire on B and the
return wire from the B valve(s) to the common. One or both may be off.

If there are wires on all 3, there may be a return that is common to B &
C which may be loose.

Try the Toro web site.

would be a good place to start.
