The timer doesn't control the display. As I said, the display in the bay is a dummy slave and does nothing but display the time. The GS-401 in the room supplies the voltage to the equipment. If you have an intermittent output problem from the timer, it's going to be the GS-401.

I had a the same problem a couple of months ago on high pressure functions/my problem turned out to be a small relay in the bay
box..It looks like an ice cube.The relay looked burnt.I had the panel open and started looking for a loose connection when it would stop. Mine was the ice cube relay..It could be a wire that has a bad connection too.

I too had the same problem last week.
It was a bad plugin base that the relay plugs into. I replaced the base and the problem went away.
