Sterky Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 This past week I refilled our 2009 Hot Spring Prodigy after it was drained and off all summer. I let it heat up for a day and then shocked it. I then hit the jets to circulate the chlorine, then thought oh I should hit clean, then decided no just jets for now. It went jets -> clean -> jets once or twice in about 1-2 seconds. The jets engaged and disengaged and then suddenly when the jets showed on on the LCD there was no jets... I toggled a few times and it made and odd noise, then suddenly the entire hot tub lost power at the lcd and no further buttons responded. I have since confirmed that I am receiving 240 V at the control board. I ordered a replacement control board but still no sign of life on hot tub. What are my next steps? How do I determine if the larger board is bad? Starting to get cold so I need to act fast, and service technicians are not readily available in my rural area. Thanks for any help!

Sterky Posted October 30, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Original control board shown. Wondering if on the main board (3rd image) if the yellow stuff leaked out or if it is just glue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cranbiz Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 Yes, the yellow stuff is just glue/potting compound. There is a good chance that the power supply board is bad though. It's a common problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDspaguy Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 Turn on power and check the 3 led lights to the right of the "3rd board". Which are lit? If none, turn off power, unplug controller, and turn on power. Now which are lit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
