Pageup,
Many thanks for your help.
The spa pack is Balboa, the tub came with a Prozone ozonator which I was replacing with a Clarathon, primarily because the bulb can be replaced. (I didn't know if it was acceptable to name brands on this board, some boards don't like that)
The Prozone was 115 volts, four sockets in the AMP plug but only three pins.
I like the Balboa ozonator you linked. Do you know if the lamp can be replaced in this unit?
Thanks again.

Unfortunately no it cannot.
That said, for years I've preferred the non-replaceable versions simply because after 5,6,7 years of use - its just as well to replace the ballast and the supporting circuitry that gets just as old and as used as the bulb.

Okay, thanks. That makes sense now that you mention it.
Unless there is something for me to actually test, I'm going to have to assume I got a bad unit and return it.

It sounds as though the pin configuration is incorrect.
I'd double check before returning it.

Swine,
I did reconfigure the AMP plug but that didn't change the behavior.
I'm wondering if this could be some type of a relay issue, but I'm going to eliminate the ozone unit as the culprit first.
Thanks.
John

Are you using all 4 pins on the O3 side?

Okay new info, sorry for the delay I had back surgery. Remember this O3 generator is only supposed to operate on low jets. If I take my voltmeter to the supply side, I'm getting the following:
Pins Low jet off Low jet low Low jet high
Green/
White 120 120 120
Green/
Black 120 120 120
This can't possibly be right, but I've double and triple checked them. The relays on the board are visually working properly, eg I see them open and close. I don't know how to proceed, I expected the relays to be controlling voltage to the O3 unit.

Why would I be reading 120 volts at the O3 power plug with Pump 1 off, low, or high?
Anyone?
