Rainbird Lawn Sprinkler system not working
My house has lawn sprinklers controlled by a Rainbird RC-7BI system. It is connected to a separate irrigation water line.
We have not used it since we bought the place ( over 1yr back) for several reasons.
Last week, I tried turning it on but it does not work.
Can someone help me with the basic diagnostics for this? How can check whether the master Irrigation line to the house is turned on? What are other diagnostic steps to take?
Thanks a lot!

just look for a ball valve or gate valve in the crawl space or basement that is in the vicinity or look for a pipe going out side and trace back to the valve. If you can locate one of the elec. zone valve outside in the ground turn it on manualy
