I have a spa that will maintain any temperature up to 97 degrees and all the jets work, but when it gets to that temperature, the circuit breaker trips. I think I see the heater indicator on the control board on, and just as the temperature gets to 97, I hear a click and the breaker trips, but also that moment passed quickly. What is going on when the heater reaches it set temperature such that something draws too much power - or causes a ground fault maybe?
Hi There. I am wondering how the flow switch works. Is it picking up an electrical current generated by the water flow through the tube? The reason i ask is i have an issue with this system showing a flow error when pumps 1 and 2 are switched on. And the plumbing for pumps 1 and 2 are independent of the circulation pump so i cant see how it can effect the flow switch. I have already replaced the pack once and it worked ok for 2-3 weeks but now its doing the same thing. If i could understand the flow switch it may help me resolve the issue. Any ideas??
HI again, I have got my balboa circuit board back from the repairers. It warms only to 29 degrees even if I have it set for 38 degrees. All relays have been changed. When I lowered the heat to 26,I see the temp light goes off. And I hear a small click. Then I put it back to 38 and get a small click. The heat then flashes, but it is not going over 29 ? The fuses look fine, but the big main one is not glass, so would need to check that one. I checked the AC current on the element, with it all powered up, And it read nothing. is this strange or what? The element is warmish to touch not hot to burn yourself. I need to switch it off now to check, the ohms. just checked the ohms, around 18,9-19? What does this mean if it is not around 11 or 12? I don't know where the problem is, any ideas?

My spa seems to be doing the same.
What was the solution?
What gecko model number is that? I have the same one and looking for instructions.

How can I just change the relay
