Taco Zone Valve box noise

in Gas Heating
I have a Taco ZVC403 zone valve control box. I have 3 zones each having their own thermostat. When a zone calls for heat there is a “LOUD” buzzing noise and I believe it is coming from the zone valve box. What would cause this? The strange thing is it doesn’t happen all the time. I’ve been shutting the power switch (electric) off to the boiler when it does happen. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. Peter

It's a relay vibrating, or causing vibration.
If I were there I'd first do the non-technical, but aware of electricity, 'pushing on stuff' while it's buzzing to see if it stops. I've seen them buzz if the cover isn't screwed on tight.
If that hail mary doesn't work, it's time to open it up, get a meter and see whats doing.
Do you have any power stealing thermostats (brand/make/model)?There was an error rendering this rich post.
