Brent331 Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 Looking for some help out there. Just replaced the heater relay board and the heater did not replace the main board. It worked great for a while and then all of a sudden the red light on the main board would not light up the green light on the main board was lit green. The controls change the temperature OK and the red light shows up for power and control but it does not heat up. This red light is on the control the red light on the main board does not come on does it sound like I need to also upgrade the main board?? Thanks And any help would be greatly appreciated The picture is upside down The green light is on the two red lights are off this is on the main board The green light is limit OK The red heater on never comes on even though I just replaced the power relay board. there is a green light on the power relay board the new power relay board appears to be working fine the only problem is the heater never gets power Limit OK green always lit htr on - red light never comes on Bottom red light on the main board never comes on Small green lit light Constantly on the power relay board Keep in mind that this is an updated power relay board with a main board that is 20 years old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDspaguy Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 The lights on the board are labeled. I don't know which is what color, so post a picture of the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDspaguy Posted May 1, 2021 Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 Remove filters. Check circ pump for obstructions and proper flow. Jumper pressure switch connection at board. @castletonia, any issues with a new relay board on an old system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent331 Posted May 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 I unhook the ozonator from the electricity from plug-in Still lots of bubbles lots of flow coming from the drain does not appear to be any Obstruction and plenty of circulation pump flow keep in mind that this is a new heater relay board installed on existing or original main board I think the problem is that the main board is not allowing any electricity to go to the heater Since the red light for heater on never comes on the main board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where I work we do not replace just the relay boards on the old systems, its the entire IQ2020 control box or nothing. I know it costs more up front but we had a few where bad control boards would take out the new relay boards we were putting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent331 Posted May 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 Did you mean that the jumper control switch on the main board is probably bad?? I assume that means that you have to get a whole new board main board that is and hopefully the old relay board is OK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent331 Posted May 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 It seems like since I put the new relay board in when I use the breaker to turn it on I hear a loud clickthan I ever have heard before But the heat or the red light on the main board never comes on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I mean use a piece of wire to "jump" the pins in the plug on the board for the pressure switch. Post a picture of the whole board and I'll find it for you.

RDspaguy Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 It doesn't look like that board has a pressure switch connection. Did you replace the heater and/or thermistors? Test thermistors with an ohm meter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent331 Posted May 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 Yes I replaced the heater and both wires, And the heater relay board if I had it to do over again I would buy the whole IQ board itself 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
