DustyBill54 Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 My new circ. pump arrived this afternoon. Got it installed and all systems are go! Thanks for everyone's help and advice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giarcmo Posted August 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 Well its been a while but here is an update on my situation : I ordered a new pump as Dusty Bill did and installed . As soon as the tub went through its preliminary tests and the circulation pump should kick in it trips the breaker . Now I am stumped I thought it might be a bad pump so I exchanged it for a new one and the same thing happens . Any ideas ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PreservedSwine Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 The heater may have developed a ground fault while you were sorting out the circ pump- try disconecting both heater leads, power it up, and see if it still trips.

PreservedSwine Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Are you sure the pump is wired properly? Did it come with the cord attached? Is the new pump the same voltage as the original? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the pump came with the cord attached and it is the same voltage . I know I cant think of anything . all the other jets work fine its just when the tub goes to prime and the new pump tries to kick in and it throws the breaker .

PreservedSwine Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Did you change anything else recently, particularily- re-wire or replace the breaker- has anything changed from the time ot was working until now? (Longshot- but If you have a 220c PCB, and a 120v circ pump, as soon as the neutral is used- it will detect that as current leakage if a GFCI breaker is miswired- but if you hadn't messed with it- ignore this advice) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gribley Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Whatever happened in this situation?? Same situation here.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakelivingandy Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 I am having this same issue. Checked fuses, dip switch locations, tried a new pump and still nothing. Clean filters, no clogs. Tub has worked great for years. Everything works but the circulation pump. I know this is a common issue based on using the search function here but it doesn't seem that people post the end resolution. What am I missing here? Wife is about to kick me out of the house. Tub is a 2009 Master Spa LSX 1000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakelivingandy Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 I figured I would post a resolution in hopes of helping someone else in the future. Pump was bad and when it died it "tripped " the board . The tech said it is like when your computer freezes up. He switched the first dip switch and put the tub in test mode to reset everything. Tested circ pump circ by plugging in pump 4 and it worked. Ordered a new circ pump, and everything now works great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonK Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 I have a down east spa with the same issues as below. Did anyone solve the dr/05/fl codes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDspaguy Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 @RonK, you should start your own thread. Most of us will just pass by a decade old thread with multiple replies. Include a pic of your circuit board and wiring diagram. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
