Hi
My hot tub was working fine 3 days ago but now when i switch it on the motor comes on for 5 secs then trips off.
It is a Catalina maxi model.
Regards Ritch

Welcome to the forum. More knowledgeable people will be along soon. I'm just kind of the zoo keeper. When you say it trips off, do you mean a breaker trips, or it just shuts off?

Thanks for the Welcome wmccall

When i switch it on to start heating, the motor trips after 5-10secs on main fuse box

Could be a few things, I would start with un-hooking the heater first or the ozonator if it has one? If your handy at all it's pretty easy to trouble shooting..
