Running a Gecko spa pack. Was a new replacement about 5 years ago. Yesterday the breaker popped and will only reset for about 10 seconds then trips again. I unplugged everything from the pack and it still trips. there is a 1 amp fuse in there that from research appears to be associated with the transformer on the main board. If i pull that fuse the breaker does not trip but the operating panel also does not come on. Hoping someone knows a bit about this spa packs. Wondering how to test the transformer and if that is actually the problem is it replaceable? I removed the pack to have a look at the back of the board and there is no burns or broken connections that I could see. There is some heat discoloration behind the fuse panel but very minor. Any ideas are appreciated. A new spa pack is $631. Would like to not have to change it again. Cheers
