Hi! Thank you for any advice you can offer. The circuit breaker for my hot tub won't stay on. I try to flip it on and it just flips back to the off position. It's a Marquis Everyday 418, made in 2006. The weather is at freezing or near freezing, and it will be freezing for many days on end starting the day after tomorrow, so it appears time is of the essence.
The LED panel reads the following codes: IC and Sn. I know IC means there are icy conditions and Sn means there's a sensor problem. The water temperature was 44 to start with last night and then it got all the way up to 50 and perhaps a bit higher before flipping off about seven hours later. This is why I dont believe the problem is the heating element, but Im not totally sure.
Today I fixed a leak in the hot tub, apparently, which was just a loose screw in the component panel of the hot tub. The screw connects a tube to the element at the bottom of the box that contains electronic circuitry. The leak is apparently fixed because it has been eight hours since I tightened the above mentioned screw and the water level has not gone down an iota.
I have checked all the fuses, for what thats worth, and they all show continuity.
One more thing: I live in a small town in southeastern Ohio, Athens, and apparently the only two contacts I have for hot tub repair experts are on vacation. I know I'm starting this just before a weekend, but I just closed on the house the hot tub is located at, and the problem has just come up. If anyone has any suggestions for an expert who can help me directly on site in Athens, Ohio this weekend or Monday, please please let me know.
Thanks again.
