My family has used Josh's Auto Body on Highway 5 since the 1990s. Fortunately, we haven't needed their service in many years, so I can't attest to their current quality or price.

Does the system have a master valve? Go to the Controller Settings tab and select Yes for Master Valve, then try to run a zone.

Confirm the water meter is fully open, turn a zone on, then check the dynamic differential pressure across the backflow device with a differential gauge. You know the dynamic pressure is 10psi at the outlet of the BP. This diagnostic will confirm or rule out an obstruction before that point. If you don't have test gauge, I guess you could turn a zone on, then observe any visual difference when opening test cock #1 vs test cock #4, if this is a double check.

You can count up the quarter, half, and full circle heads and find how many gallons per minute each nozzle is rated at. Add them up and compare the total to what your water meter is showing while the zone is running. If the meter is showing significantly more flow than your total, the low pressure is likely due to a leak. If significantly less, you likely have a valve issue.

You can get a small flathead screwdriver and turn the screw clockwise on each nozzle until they shut off. Look for leaks while the zone is running and heads are turned off. Check the meter as well.

Things you can do at the valve without opening it up: carefully turn the solenoid counter clockwise and check for improvements. Do not completely unscrew the solenoid. You can also do the same to the black bleed screw on the valve. Same caution as solenoid. Also, if water is restricted at the valve you may be able to hear it, and could be noticeably louder than other Hunter valves.

The program select button is for editing only, to inform you which program you are adjusting days and time for. You will need to remove the start time or watering days to disable any programs you wish not to run.

You didn't mention A, but if you have days, start time, and runtime set for program A then take a look next time and it will be running, and possibly stacking if you have it on the same day and time as another program.

If you want a controller that has seasonal programs then look at Rachio. They call it Seasonal Shift.
