1991 Jacuzzi Esprit II, 120v only, 2-speed pump/170gal. Chrome air button is located on side of Jacuzzi. Unit will be plugged into the correct 120v 20A GFCI outlet when it is time.

I just bought this Jacuzzi from a neighbor for 150 dollars. He's moving to Oregon and selling his house. He told me that his son got into the control box on the Jacuzzi and pulled all the wires out of the relays, air switch and such. So, looking inside I see the preverbial "rats nest."
Having above average(IMHO) mechanical abilities, I've set out to correctly re-install the wires into their correct relays and 4 position air switch. I've been researching this problem for 2 days and can absolutely not find any information anywhere on the net about this unit.
There is a schematic on the control panel door. However, this schematic shows the use of 120vdc relays and bridge rectifiers. The relays that are in the actual panel are indeed 120vac relays. All electrical equipment is joined by a common ground bare solid wire to facilitate the correct operation of the GFCI(safety).

How would I go about connecting the wires correctly?

I have identified the following equipment on the Jacuzzi; 2-speed pump, heater(built-in stat.), filter, flow switch, door switch removed(cut wires).

Thank you for your help,
John

I will post a photo of typical wiring for those 4 position cam switches... you will need to identify the color of the cam inside, typically either green or blue. Each has a different order of events. I will also include a basic wiring schematic for setups like yours. Neither of which is Jacuzzi issue, but completely useable for your situation.

That information is GOLD BABY!! GOLD!!!
Thank you!
My 120vac 1.5kw heater has 4 wires coming out of it. 2 large black and white wires. Then 2 smaller brown and blue wires. The type of heater is the Jacuzzi "L shaped" unit with a housing on it that has at least a temprature control on the front, I can't see what is on the other side.
I think I understand what the black and white wires connect to but not the other 2 smaller wires. I'm assuming that nuetral is connected to nuetral and the basically black wire finishes the circuit after the relay has closed and the flow switch closes.

So, the blue and brown wires are a mystery so far.

Thanks again,
Peter

the blue and brown should be your high limit, possibly flow switch, can't really say positivly since I'm not familier with that heater setup. Take a multitester and ohm out the two mystery wires. If you have resistance, it's a high limit. If it's either shorted or open, it's probably a flow.

You can get by just switching just the hot wire of the heater, but it's always best to switch both, especially if it was a 240V circuit.

Well, I found the heater tripping the GFCI. The element is bad and the adjoining controls(stat, high limit box) were soaked and rusty. I've removed the heating element and want to replace it. Maybe I'll find something at Home Depot that will work as an element. I'll assume that if the new element is 208 or 240vac @ 5kw, 120vac to this new element should yeild 1 to 1.5kw. The high limit and thermostat are rusty globs of what used to be controls. As for the stat and HL I don't think Home Depot will carry this type of equipment but I will look.

Thank you again for your help!
We'll be up and running soon, I can feel it!
