Yes that how mine worked two months ago. Now I hear just start the jet pumps all by itself with no one near. It starts in the middle or the night and sometimes runs all night until you shut them off. You can be sitting in it and it turn on or off by it self. Like I said I have replaced the control head and outer buttons as well and have also disconnected the auxiliary control panel as well to no luck yet of correcting the problems. Has anybody else experienced this?
