Jacuzzi spa trips GFI as soon as blower is turned on. I have isolated each component and it is definatly the blower. There is no water in the blower. I removed the blower and connected it directly to a 110 GFI protected outlet and it runs fine and does not trip. Appreciate any help.

If this is a built in 115 volt gfci, replace it.

It's getting old and senile and doesn't like blowers.

I should have been more specific. It is kicking out the 220 GFI in the main breaker panel. The tub has a balboa control panel. I removed the panel cover and turned on the blower and I can hear a pop on the circuit board or from somewhere within the spa pack as it kicks out the GFI. Thanks
