Help Locating A Sprinkler Valve

[mdrew27]

Hey...
I live down in south west florida and wasn't using my sprinklers for a month or two but I wanted to water my sprinklers the other week and noticed one of my zones runs simotanueously with all my other zones. I'm guessing the valve is stuck open. I'm trying to locate the valve but haven't had any luck. I've tried probing around the location I think it might be in but can't find it. I have a three foot wide landscaping bed running the perimeter of my house that's bedded with landscaping rocks with I'm thinking is where all my valves are locating in relation to the zones. I order a chattering device that hooks up to the sprinkler control box and is suppose to make the celenoid on the valve turn on and Off repededly but it's not working for me. Anyone have any ideas or experience locating valves? Thanks in advance.

have you tried, going to the "clock", and running each zone individually, to see if the 2 zones both come on that way...

Also by that clock is where the main distribution manifold should be. That's how we used to set them up in Seattle in my younger days.
