J739 Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 Hi. I am new to spas and to this site. I have a Solana TX and it seems to function fine anytime we use it. Jets work. Temp stays within a degree or two of what the display says. It seems like it is running almost all the time. The display shows two rows of dots and dashes. _._._._._. _._._._._. Something like that. It goes away if you touch the controls and seems to function correctly, but within 10 seconds or so it returns to the dots and dashes screen. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help.

J739 Posted September 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Here are a bunch of pics. All taken while the tub was running. I didn't turn it on. It was just running cause it seems like it always is.lol. when I turned the Jets off, the green light stayed lit and the red light went out. Also the small black sensor in the heater tube had a drip of cold water coming off it and some staining on the heater tube below it so I assume small leak there. As the weather has gotten cooler, it has been running non stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDspaguy Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 https://www.backyardplus.com/proddetail.php?prod=73995 This is probably the cause. You need a new one even if not if it is leaking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J739 Posted September 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 RDspaguy, Thank you for your help. That was what it needed. Temp is way more accurate and the tub seems to only run during the F1 and F2 cycles and maybe once other than that to keep the temp. Can't thank you enough.

Marcb Posted December 19, 2020 Report Share Posted December 19, 2020 I have the same error code, my hot tub has been sitting for a year I cleaned it out and now it’s not heating with the same error code as above, my spa seems to be almost exactly like this model, could it be the same problem?

JCF Posted February 13, 2021 Report Share Posted February 13, 2021 I also have a Watkins Model call Adoration. Same display as the Solana. Dashes and dots. Right now after draining the tube refilling it (slightly overfilled) neither the jets or temp are responding. I pulled the filters, let out the overfill and still no jets or temp.

Had the same code and yes it was a faulty flow sensor. Here is a good download of the various codes. https://www.pioneerfamilypools.ca/wp-content/uploads/resources/hottub-info/4howto/Hot-Tub-Troubleshooting-Guide.pdf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenD Posted February 13, 2021 Report Share Posted February 13, 2021 J739 how are you enjoying the Solana? Wife and I just downsized to one in December and are very happy. BTW if you are a DIYer and your motomassage stops working check out the fix hack on this site. Saving $100 is well worth the effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star555 Posted February 20 Report Share Posted February 20 Hello, I’ve been following this thread. Same problem - ——- dashes on the panel, Jets going on all the time, temp not going up as high as before. I ordered the sensor and after months it arrived! Changed it today, and now I have 61° showing on the panel. When I push the temperature up button I get “uE - 4”. (It’s not exactly a u and not exactly an E. But that’s the closest letters I can type) then it also has the word “set” up in the upper left corner. if I push the temperature down button that number after the dash will change to three and then two and then one. anybody know what that means? Thank you from Star Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
