I cannot access the right timer, which controls our to the filter pump, Which may be not a large issue since that pump has its own built-in timer. But the conduit has come disconnected from the timer itself, therefore recommend minor service to resolve ($100). Also recommend adding the protective plastic piece to prevent shock ($100).
