I set the tub up on blocks and filled it up and saw where most of the water was coming out of, marked it and turned it back over and continued my foam dig, it seems that the heater must of gone out in the winter and the water froze in the pipes and cause a 1 1/2 " flex pipe near the other side of the control panel to split, I dug the foam out around this pipe and saw a huge split on each side of this pipe, I took out that section of pipe and replaced it now there are no more leaks....... the tub has sat full of water for 4 days now and still has the same amount of water in it yea
I installed a 20 amp breaker in the main box and ran conduit to a GFCI box by the hot tub, inside the control panel I hard wired a plug to it and removed the jumpers. It is now set for 120 volts as it was originally from the factory. When plugged in I still do not get power light to come on, so my next step is on the circuit board I measure 120 volts on the primary to the transformer but only 1.4 volts on the secondary so I think the transformer is bad, my problem is what should the output be and where do I find one of those
? I called the hot tub place and they told me I needed a whole new circuit board and they do not replace parts.... the cost is $ 450.00 for a new one. Does that sound right
?
I also measured the heating elements which gave me a reading of 10.26 ohms, so I think the heater is good.... is that an indiction of a good heater
? I would think if the elements were burned out or open I would get an open line reading.
Does anyone know of where I can buy parts for the circuit board this is for a 1997 Hot Springs Souvereign hot tub
thanks again to you all who have helped me in the past........ I keep on getting closer to soaking
