Does ANYONE know what would cause the HEATER UNIT on this unit to short out! and the white wire to burn completely off of the Circuit board? After having someone who knows something about electrical components look at this - connecting a meter to the wires on the heater - White and Black - which with a meter showed a direct short in it? This heater has an internal reset - what does that mean - is this something (reset) that I can do or check.
It's a Laing 'Infinity' Brand Heater, Laing part # 6698. Low-flow 240Volt, 5.5 Kw, 23 Amp with internal reset. Used in Jacuzzi and Sundance spas '02 and up(part#6500-402) as well as others. Loop is 11" high and 22" long.
Any feedback would be GREATLY APPRECIATED>> As it stands right now - it looks like the circuit board was damaged and will need to be replaced - in addition to the heater unit. What would have caused the heater to fail???
