Here goes my first experience. I have aquired a Vita L200 Bijou 110v with l200 Disc tech contoller. Just got electric hooked up today. Spa runs, I set time. In program mode I can cycle to heat mode but when I press prog 3 times will not get to filter cycle time.

At some point while trying to go thru sequence the GCFI (20 amp) trips. I would assume there is some type of excessive draw or short? Can anything thing in the controller cause this? I am really new to all this and need to do some fooling around with it but need a basic starting point. In a single 110v pump application are the pumps 2 speed? Does heater run at same time as pump?" If not could that cause the GCFI trip?Thnak you. I am sure I left out important details

A couple possibilities, either the amp selector for the heater is not properly on 120v, so the element will run with the hi speed pump (a no-no for 120v) or something has damaged the element and when it comes on it trips the gfi
