Hot Spot: When I turn on the jets the fuse immeditely trips

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I have a hot spot mallorca.  I was in for a long time last night, more than an hour. Suddenly the spa power went out. The fuse (on the spa's outdoor outlet) had popped.  I got out and turned the fuse back on, the display panel lit up, I hit the jet button and the fuse popped again immediately.

I tried again today, same result. I opened the service panel today, no apparent problem, nothing was wet in there.

Does this sound like a familiar problem to anyone? Does a hot tub have an internal fuse that may burn out and cause this?

Thanks!

Is it possible that water may have gotten into the equipment area while you were using the spa? I'd start with an inspection of the equipment/ control box area first. If nothing is obvious there, you'll want to check for a possible short in your jet pump or heater. Disconnect one or both of these components from the control system before resetting your breaker. If the breaker holds then the disconnected component likely has the problem or short.
