Default Irrigation system partially working

My irrigation system is partially working - all zones (4 total) are working except zone one which is the front yard. The rain sensor says it's wet, but even if I bypass the sensor, zone one still won't turn on. Any ideas? I am calling a tech tomorrow, but just thought someone might have an idea.

Thanks!

The solenoid, diaphragm, the controller, or a break in the wire. Easily diagnosed.

Have you manually activated the solenoid?

My guess is the Zone valve solenoid… manually open it to check it…. Cheap fix…
