Yes it will. Take a picture first of the current wiring you have on your old control box. Note of the wires that connect to each zone. Connect the wires to the ports on your Rachio based on the zones you have noted.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I had an old Toro timer and this replaced it completely. I marked the wire for each zone as I disconnected each wire from the old timer. I think connected the wires to the Rachio.
