Please try to include the following with your question, list:
1) the date code (located under the battery),
2) the model number shown on the face of the controller (usually below and to the left of the dial, e.g., RD-600 or RD-600-R).
3) Color (mostly Gray or Blue) based on the example rainDials shown at the top of the page.
How do I remove the rain dial box from the wall?
Hi Chuck,
fyi: if you are wanting me to repair it you don’t need to take it off the wall, just remove the parts.
If you want it off the wall, you can sometimes just push it upward off the screw mount and then it’ll pull off. If not, then remove the back terminal board and look behind it for screws that hold it to the wall.
does that help?

I just moved into a house with a Rain Dial RD600-ext-R no date, blue controls with gray cover. Is it possible to figure out to what the 3 programs are set?
Hi Carol,
See my prior answer to your other post.

I just moved into a house with a Rain Dial R and want to determine the programs already running. Can I figure it out?
Hi Carol,
Yes. Just follow the instructions on this site for the programming tips and tutorials. If you go through the steps to program the unit, you’ll be able to see what the programming is currently set to. Then you can change it if you want.
Regards,
Brian
