Is there a contractor I could call that would come out and program it correctly?
Barry, There is a "Program" button which allows three different watering schemes: A, B, and C. It is very easy to inadvertently activate more than one scheme. Normally, you want or need to have only one scheme (program) active. Press the "Program" button to move from one to the other. "B" and "C" should be "off" and only "A" should show watering activity, i.e. days, start times, run times, etc. Your sprinkler timer is frustrating for most people.
