Had a MP40wQD dry side go bad and was able to snag an older style dry side for a replacement. Everything I've read said the older dryside will work with the new wet sides and newer drivers. When I turn it on,, the drivers starts in the pulse mode which I have set, then flashes green then red, and then flashes white and starts over. Why is my driver doing this?

IMO EcoTech support is awesome and will respond quickly:

I do not know if it is the video socket, but I only see a cable entering the central controller that would be to power, but I do not see the cable that connects to the dry side pump.

I do have the cable from the dryside connected to the driver.
 
I don't remember exactly. Might have been due to the wrong size spacer not letting the sides sync up correctly l.
