Spa Control Panel Removal Advice

[barryuk99]

Hi All, I'm trying to remove my Balboa Sports Deep hot tub control panel and it currently does not want to budge! I've watched a few videos on this, with all showing the panels being quite easily removed from the outside and seem to be held in with sealant only.

My panel is lifting on the upper & lower side long edges, but it feels firmly locked in at both ends, maybe by screws, but cannot see any on the inside surface. But it is quite difficult to see on the inside, so maybe hidden. Couldn't seem to attach a pic of my panel, so have included a link below.

Do any of you have any advice at all on this issue?

Thanks in advance.

It's possible there are two screws under the overlay on the control panel.  Only way to find out is to peel back the overlay, which will likely require you getting a new one.  Otherwise, it should have been just a 3M adhesive or silicon holding it in place.

MANY THANKS castletonia, as you were spot on. I removed the overlay and there were 2 screws holding the panel in. Thanks again and enjoy your Sunday.
