zich6 Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 Last night the 2.5 year old tub (so out of warranty) shut off and the panel went dark. I cycled the main breaker and the subpanel 50amp breaker with no impact. The manual also says to check the fuse which I believe is a 7amp for the pumps. Before I take the panel off and start checking things, any advice? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianSpaTech Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 Yes...Take panel off and post photos of the circuit board as well as the diagram on the inside of the control box cover. Pump fuses are usually 25 or 30 amp. Usually the glass F4 fuse is what I would check first if everything is dark but that would depend on the pack brand as well. I think Clearwater spas (Devine) uses balboa packs. Do you have and have knowledge of a multi meter to test fuses and power? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zich6 Posted August 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 It is a Balboa pack. After letting it sit all night I cycled all the breakers again including the subpanel GFCI test and it booted up. We get some goofy power spikes here and that could possibly have been the culprit. Thanks for the excellent analysis and quick response. Nearest tech is a $300 trip charge away, so I'll be relying on this forum if I have problems in the future. Last week I replaced a leaking slice valve coupler myself. Thanks again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
