  1. So I replaced the fuse and voltmeter still shows no power to the pump. Is there another fuse that might need replacing?
  2. Stupidly, when working with the Jacuzzi Pump/Balboa Board I neglected to document how to connect the wires to the ngm start capacitor on the pump. There are two yellow wires, and one pink one, that connect to the four terminals on the hot tub. I have no way of knowing which pair of terminals gets the two yellow wires, and which of the other two terminals gets the pink wire. I also don't know why there is a large circle on one side, and a much smaller one on the other. I'm attaching a picture; as always any assistance is greatly appreciated.
  3. Thank you very much; that's just what I needed.
  4. One of my two pumps isn't coming on after a power failure; the other pump comes on and the control shows the water temp but doesn't appear to be heating. I think it's a fuse; would the fuse in the attached image be the one? Thx in advance for any assistance!
  5. Came home from vacation to an empty hot tub ... added water and it immediately began pouring out of one of the two pumps. Pump is a jacuzzi spa pump model P110jb1524 sundance. I assume I can order a new pump and install it, but what are the chances that the electronics were destroyed when the water ran out? Hopefully the breaker went off before damage was done,but I don't know any way to be sure? Thx in advance for any advice -- Dave Miller
  6. Thanks for the info ... the one pump does come on, and I can see the water circulating, but it's at a low speed because only one pump is working. So I don't think it's a clog;
  7. Hello ... members here have been very helpful in the past and I'm seeking advice once again. The pump in front of the heater is not powering on. Normally I press the Jets button once and Pump 1 comes on, I press it again and Pump 2 comes on … but when I press the Jets button the second time the pump turns off. I tried shutting down the hot tub, letting it rest for a while, removing the filter and powering back on … but only the pump behind the heater comes on. There was a message on the Panel HTR DRY PRES BTTN TO RSET but none of the buttons have any effect. Is there any point in trying to have the Pump repaired? If the pump were clogged up with some of the Oak droppings in the not tub could that cause an issue? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
  8. One thing after another ... pump is leaking, badly when powered on dripping when it's off. The plumbing is tight; I'm worried that I won't be able to find the precise replacement if I buy a new one. Does anyone think this can be repaired by a qualified tech? Thx in advance! 1816512084_leakingpump.mp4
  9. Thinking I needed to remove debris from the heater--at this point the circuit breaker would not come on--I disconnected the power from the heater and the hot tub would now power on. I also noticed that it wasn't making the noise that it was before (see attached video). I found that two black wires that connected the board to the heater had been resting on the heater, and the insulation was burned through (see attached photo). Could the faulty wires have had anything to do with the noise the heater was making? Since the circuit breaker won't come on with the heater connected, will the new heater need to be replaced? I really appreciate the help that's been offered here during this nearly months-long ordeal, and my wife is especially anxious to see this resolved. 1741870264_heaterrunning.mp4
  10. So would that cause the hot tub to shut off, after a couple hours of running? And then the circuit breaker won't come back on .... is there a way to get whatever's in there out? Really appreciate the advice ...
  11. Thanks I noticed the video didn't work; I'll try posting an MP4. I don't think it's a gurgling as much as it is a rattle; perhaps the video will play now. It's interesting that the pump and heater ran for hours till it gets to 90+; at that point the circuit breaker blows. I'm wondering about the possibility of debris in the system; could something be caught in the heater element, and causing it to eventually overheat? How could you check or repair something like that? 758991927_heaterrunning.mp4
  12. Recently replaced the pump and heater in this Jacuzzi Echo hot tub. The hot tub ran for a number of hours until reaching about 90 then cut off. After turning it back on, it runs for a short time than cuts off. There is a rattling noise coming from the heater ... could debris have been introduced to the system during the repairs? Could the heating element be damaged? Thanks for any information. 554571082_heaterrunning.MOV
  13. Thanks for the information. I thought that noise was as you described, and was worried that this might burn out the heater. I'm sure the pump is wired correctly because it's been working for a few months without issue ... the hot tub just won't heat sufficiently. I don't know if this is a faulty heater, or if something else is happening, and how to tell. After turning the breaker back on the hot tub came on, seemed to be working, and when last checked the temp was 90. Next morning though the power was off .... turned it back on and after about 15-30 minutes the OH was displayed. Usually when this happened (rarely) in the past the pump would still be running at low speed; in this case it was not. Here is the pump we installed Jacuzzi J Pump 2500-250 6.0a 230v 1 speed P110JB1524, 2500-250, F569000, S55CXNFE7055, 1563, 1795, Emerson Motor, LR63596 (spapumpsandmore.com) and I'll attach pictures of the circuit board/schematic.
  14. Had a total pump failure and lost all the water in the tub ... replaced the pump and then the heater ran for two days and didn't heat the water past 80 degrees. Replaced the heater; tub ran for hours got to 90+ degrees and shut off at breaker. Turned breaker back on and the tub makes a fan/blowing like sound coming from the heater box ... but the pump does not come on. Are these things related? Has my new pump failed? Really appreciate any advice that can be offered.
