Keith carpenter Posted June 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 i have noticed that when spa gets up to the set temp the circulating pump shuts down then there is a quick flo error then that disappears and the spa displays just the temp of the water i thought the circulating pump should run 24/7 ? when looking around the control panel there was a temp sensor just hanging from the box,i have since found out it should be clipped to the heater tube. it has never been clipped to the tube since i have owned it.

Keith carpenter Posted June 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 i’ve noticed a jumper on J10 which says enable pump 3, but i do not have 3 pumps only the circulation pump & a 2 speed pump, i wonder if the previous owner had work done on this spa & used a similar board & made it fit ?

RDspaguy Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 For 24 hour circ pump j6 needs a jumper on both pins according to the info @CanadianSpaTech sent. Your sensor needs to be installed properly but is not related to the flo error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDspaguy Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 Your board is also set for 60hz. Does your area have 50hz electrical? There is some printing on the board beneath the controller plug that is about the jumpers but I can't see all of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDspaguy Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 To the right of the pressure switch plug is the bank of jumpers. The one on the bottom, j25, is a 3 pin and is labeled 50hz on the left and 60hz on the right. Move it over so it connects the 2 leftmost pins.

RDspaguy Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 Idunno. This board has j6 labelled "interlock option". I am beginning to think we are looking at a hodgepodge system with the wrong board. It doesn't even have the right hz setting. We may never get to the bottom of this one.
