Welcome to our forum.
Maybe Steve Hammock knows?
:-/ A different tech came out today...tested breakers and determined that they are good......he said that he has only seen our case once before and that wiring must have gotten cut and there is moisture that could have gotten in wiring and that we should get electrician in to rewire?! My fear is that I am going to go to this extent and run the risk of this problem not being solved and I am out $500 more!
Keep positive! If the electrician wired this unit when you first purchased it, then he should be able to do somthing for you especially if it were faulty wiring?Things will work out and you will be back in that Hottub before you know it!
Just curious. I'm not an electrician or a tech, so if this is totally un-doable, don't everyone yell at once.Would there be a way to run a temporary line from your breaker to your tub to see if that takes care of the issue? If it does, then you know you have faulty wiring. If it doesn't, then you know its not the wiring. Just an idea to isolate that issue.Might be a horrible idea, but maybe worth a try.
If the spa is not far from the box I would buy some 220v wire (you can buy 20 ft pretty cheap and might need it if the wiring is bad) and bypass the existing whip to see if it has a problem. First I would unplug everything from the control box and see if the breaker stays on....If it does wire is probably not the problem. BTW, turn off the breaker before changing any wire!!
Glad you agree with my idea.
