That is your meter: Fleck Meter Assembly, Brass. A cable connects this meter to the softener valve. The inner part of the cable spins as the wheel in the meter spins. The meter can go bad and the cable can go bad as well. This is part of what Fleck calls their mechanical/electrical valve. Technology from the dark ages.

Replacement brass cap is about $250. As I recall, you found the mechanical cable was the root cause.

That’s right, the bound cable is most certainly what cause these stripped gears.

Buckeye, do you sell this item?
