    My Orbit 4 zone battery operated timer started watering on the wrong day starting this year. So I reset and reprogrammed it, and it thinks even with the date set correctly that it is YESTERDAY. When I program it for 4/28/2025, which is a Monday, it thinks it’s Sunday on the AUTO screen.

    I went through the whole 2025 calendar and its off by one day. But if I set it back to any day in 2024 or any day in 2026, it corrects itself. So I’m going to have yo say that Orbit programmers created a bug in the 2025 calendar to address 2024 being a leap year.

    So I have to change my schedule this year to water a day earlier, and then remember next year to set it correctly unless orbit fixes it and sends me a new timer 🙂

    setting your schedule a day earlier is a good workaround. It might help to contact Orbit customer support to report the issue and see if a fix is in the works.
