OK guys. It was disconnected for the weekend. The circuit breaker did not pop. The end of the white H2 was a little corroded so I clipped it to fresh metal. Still the same result. Circuit breaker pops till it is up to correct temp then it's OK. Is it the heater??? I did replace the smaller circuit board a year ago. Is it possible the board went bad again??? I will replace the heater when I change the water again if that is the consensus.

This is how they always have been. I will return them to the same places. Thank you

My H2 is white and H1 is black. When I put them back, should I switch them or leave them as they were. Or is that what is causing my curcuit breaker problem?

Thank you. That is what I thought.

This Cheeshead retired in South Carolina and sold my snowblower. I will try to unplug the heater this weekend as I am going out of town again. Do you know which wires are for the heater? I'm guessing the H2.

The new breaker is still tripping. 😞

RDspaguy; Thank you for your help. I have gotten a new breaker. To soon to tell if it is still acting up. I will be gone for a few weeks. I will update you when I return. Thanks again. Mick

Thank you. I will check the breaker today. Since there are 2 breakers in the box, I will see if they are the same and if they are I will switch them around. There are 3 lights on the circuit board. Two red and one green. Is that normal?

Only one breaker trips. It is for the heater. The pumps still run when the breaker is tripped. Like I said, Moet of the time it is just fine. Occasionally it will trip and when I refill the tub with cold water, it trips quite a bit.

I have a Hot Springs spa. 2007 Sovereign model. When I refill it or if it is really cold, it pops the circuit breaker. It seems when the heater has to work a little harder it pops. When it is up to tempeture it is fine. My local dealer said it would be $200 to come out and look at it. If the heater needed to be replaced, it would be $700. I can get a new heater for $300 and install it myself. Is it possible there is something else wrong and not just the heater? If so how do I check it?

I have lowered the set to 94 from 100 and it is 102. It has been in the 90's here.

My Hot Springs hot tub is getting to hot. It gets hotter than what I set it at. Please help.
