Please post photos of your circuit board and the schematic on the inside cover of your spa pack so we can see. Post photo of white tag on pump motor and the topside as well. Basically all the parts you just installed.

Yes I was notice this arrows and finally working fine back to life very appreciate for your help . Thank you

Hey guys! First of all, I would like to thank you all for being so responsive and willing to help. This forum has been a tremendous resource this past week as I encountered one obstacle after another fixing various components in our hot tub. I ended up calling Dream Maker this morning, and the person I spoke with was great. She was very knowledgeable and after some discussion she determined that the board is more than likely the culprit. Since the board was one of the new parts, purchased last fall, she RMA'd it without hesitation ($400 part, so thank goodness!). It should be arriving in 7-10 days. In the meantime, I still had the old control board in the garage. I decided to get creative by removing (desoldering) the pump power cord molex connector and soldering it to a medium-duty extension cord (14/3) that plugs into a GCFI electrical outlet. Doing this enables me to bypass the control board and plug the pump directly into an electrical outlet. It also helped reassure me by confirming the pump is in working order (the pump is brand new, too!). I've attached a photo of my bypass. Ignore the terrible soldering job. I am going to redo the entire thing using the second identical molex connector on the board (one for pump, one for Ozone). I made some beginner mistakes, but I'm confident I can do a much better job redoing it. Each wire I soldered (three wires) was much better than the previous. I tested the pump and ran it for about a minute, and I felt victorious in this never-ending battle with the hot tub. Hopefully everything from here on out goes the way it's supposed to. I've learned a LOT, but I'm ready to just enjoy all of the hard work for a bit.

Yep same spot. Was also hoping one of the HS experts chimed in with the fix and o ring sizes needed if thats what has failed. Will be tearing the one I have apart tomorrow. Called my supplier and the heater had gone up in price from their CAT. price by $210 CDN!!! For me price is up to the customer but at least its in stock if the original can't be fixed and with parts supply these days that's a victory in itself. I'll post what I find

To test incoming voltage you need to use the black and white wires coming from the gfci plug, not the ground wire/terminal.
