Sprinklers fuction only when solenoid or bleed screw rotated

I have a Rain Jet classic RJ711 valve system. When the conroller automatically activates the system the sprinklers do not rise and the water flow is confined to the edges of the sprinklers. When either the solenoid or bleed screw is turned counter clockwise as directed I get an excellent spray. What is the problem and how do I fix it?

replace the diaphragm assembly is the sight-unseen answer - the all-encompassing answer is to replace everything but the valve body with the 'guts' of an Irritol 205F valve
