I just had an electrician tell me that this is what is wrong with my hot tub.
1st I replaced one of the motors----ran for a few minutes and then just stopped. So I sought professional help...Now that this is what I'm told needs to be replaced....should I just change the Circuit Board (looks like the part is going to be $355)or should I change the whole pack...and if I should change the whole pack..how do I find one that doesn't include a new motor as I just bought one?

Thanks in advance,
Alex

So if you power up the spa now it will run the pump for a few minutes and then quit?

Or does it just do nothing?

Well a $15 test beats a $400+ one any day.

Sounds like the main fuse has blown in the controller. It is what feeds the pump - if it blows, normally you will lose all power to the control system (Balboa units).

It's either an SC-20, or SC-30 time delay fuse.

You may want to give us a call on tech support line and we can help you with this better.
