@plainsane - then that makes sense. With the 300’ of wire you could test both the common and the zone wire sequentially to see if just one wire was broken.
@scarittagle, I just reviewed your controller logs and the current readings indicate you have a cut common (98% certain).
Great idea @DLane! Here’s a good video that details how to use an ohm meter to troubleshoot your sprinkler system.
Hope this helps!

@scarittagle - if you do dig up the sprinkler wiring around the Verizon cut be careful that you don’t transfer the problem to the Verizon cable by nicking, creasing or cutting that cable as it could be just above or below the sprinkler wiring. I’d dig by hand tool and very gingerly.

Thank you so much for your guys help, I already reported it to Verizon and they will cover the cost for the repair for me.
