Timer problem: Have an older Caldera spa that is working normally except Grasslin timer clock hands don't move, so timer doesn't operate and spa now runs constantly at low speed. Have recently replaced timer (24hr, 240vac, 16 amp. Manf.# FM/1-240) and problem persists.

I'm puzzled. Any Ideas?

Thanks!

Is the timer motor getting voltage?

Perhaps the old timer and new timer may appear identical, but the motor and line/load tabs might be in different places?

Turns out that the new timer was 220v and the old was 110v.

Old timer just must have died and the new one was the wrong voltage.

Thanks for the input.
