How do you get brown stains off a pool wall?
Use a natural ascorbic acid based pool product to clean stains on walls in the pool. Once applied, this product almost immediately removes most stains. Most pool stains come from metals in the water. Test your fill water to make sure it doesn't contain high concentrations of metals, if you fill your pool from sources other than city water.

How do you determine if brown staining on a plaster epoxy painted pool wall is a mineral problem or some kind of an algae problem?
Brown staining on pool walls and fixtures is usually from a high iron content in the water. The chemical reaction with newly added fill water and the addition of chlorine shortly after will cause a fallout of this metal. I have witnessed this years ago after adding a gallon o f chlor. to a newly filled pool and just watched the brown cloud form and fill the pool to a chocolate brown color. There are chelating agents to prevent this from happening. k
Why are my steps brown an my liner is vinyl?
I'm assuming you mean (white) fiberglass-type stairs in your (in-ground) pool. Brown staining and/or discoloration is most typically caused by metals (iron, copper or magnesium) that has precipitated out from corroding metal pool parts (i.e. gas pool heater waterpath) into the pool water, and settled into surfaces that can absorb this tiny particulate matter such as Rovel, fiberglass or thermoplastic pool stairs. The root cause of this is imbalanced pool water, specifically "corrosive" water, meaning pool water that is extremely low in pH, total alkalinity and calcium hardness, and is in a state that is corroding such metal surfaces and "distributing" these suspended particles throughout the pool. No amount of detergents or elbow grease will remedy this. The solution is to FIRST (pay attention to and) balance your pool water. Take a pint sample to a COMPETENT pool dealer who specializes in water testing, and add the alkalinity, pH and calcium increasers - in that order - necessary to bring the water to a "balanced" (non-corrosive) state. Then use a liquid "metal removing agent" such as the Pool Breeze brand, and pour it directly on the stairs. If you do it in front of friends, they'll think you're Kreskin, because the stairs will go from brown/black to bright white instantaneously...literally like magic.

What would cause the pool to get a brown film on the bottom when chlorine is added but becomes crystal clear when citric acid is added?
You have an imbalance in your water chemistry. Why are you using citric acid? You may have iron in the source or fill water. All you need for that is to filter the water for about 8 hrs. before you add chlorine. You may also think about using a liquid polymer for removing or suspending the iron until the filter can pick up most of it. The local pool store will know which product is best for your area.
