By the way, I tried getting the OEM of the sensor from Spa Depot but can’t get anyone that has that kind of knowledge or access to old parts vendors. Seems Belize is Spa Depot per all their site contact info brings me right back to Spa Depot and no help. If I can find out who manufactured this I’ll be able to find it from there.

Quit focusing on the spa itself, it's the equipment which is Gecko. Might take you in another direction.

Well I changed the sensor and still have the FLO error code.
Any other ideas of what it could cause a FLO error if not the Flow Sensor? Everything seems to work fine. Pumps, pressure, heater core. If I push the pump button it starts up and runs fine. When the 20 mins is over it doesn't go into the slow mode or cycle. That’s when the FLO error pops up. Hit the button and it runs fine again for 20 mins.

You try running it without a filter?

Last night I only switched the senor. Just now I replaced the entire heater core assy. And yes I just tried it all again without the filter in.
When I first turn the breaker on it runs through and the panel shows 3 dashes stuck on with 2 lights flashing on the side. Shuts down in 1 min and the dashes stay on the panel screen. I hit the power button and it fires up in high (2 speeds low and high always started on low never high). The temp is showing steady on the screen. runs for 20 mins on high then stops and FLO comes up on the screen and stays. If I hit the power again it goes for another 20 mins. No loss in power, flow, or anything else while it's running.
Any clue what I can do next?

Can you get the main pmp to run on low or not, just high? No circ pump right? All tubs with no circ will run on low spd to heat the water, if it's going direct to high speed on a 2 spd pump (pump 1) some things up with that..

Yes 1 pump and it won't go a slow. It looks like a standard pump motor. Same as I just bought for my pool. those aern't a 2 stage are they? I would think the high and low are control by the board.

Look at the label on the motor itself. if it's a 2spd pump there will be 2 sets of RPMs listed one should be 1735 low 3500 high something like that. If there is only one RPM listed then it's single spd. I don't think I have ever seen a spa with 2 single spd pumps with out a circ pump.

Sorry. Work took over my life 24/7 for a little.
So do you think this is my flo problem? Slow speed on motor is shot. I'll assume one of the large Cap on the motor is shot. Know a vendor that sells that sells these?

This looks like the starter cap.
Any reason I shouldn't try to replace this? Advise
Thx

It's worth a shot vs 350 for a new pump/motor..

Both starter capacitors read a little below their tolerances. I thought I had it.
Put the 2 new Caps on the motor for 26 bucks. Put the entire works all back together for the
time. Same thing. Runs on high only and gives FLO error.
Hey I gave it my best shot. I’ve changed the Flo senor, heater core, starter Caps on motor, and the ground wire. The display and the board are the only things left.
Do I have replacement options for a board setup? Something that will last.

Here is where I would unplug the temp sensor and plug in a different one and stick it over the side of the tub in the water. If that didn't do it I would unplug the topside and plug in a different one I knew worked. After that your at the board. Assuming everything you did is done right?
