(you have F2, F4, F6, F8, and FC if memory serves correct) F2 is typically the default setting. What do you see? If you see anything other than F 2, then keep hitting the temp button until you get to F 2. Try pressing a temp button, then whie the "set" temp is flashing, press the pump or "jets" button just once. The spa suns just as you describe- it runs thermostatically, as well as 2 hours every 12 hours, with a purge cycle lasting a minute or so every 24 hours. It would also help to know the ambient temp- as this spa is able to "maintain heat" in warm climates simply by running all the time- with the heater never being energized. I understand your issue- but I try not to assume to know what "maintaining heat" means to you, so I asked for an approx temp. The filter cycle begins approx 1 minute after start up. Temp control, and indication of temp, seems fine, so would that rule out both sensors?Īnd yes, the little red light does come on when the heat is cycled on! The Lite Leader by Balboa does not allow the user to program the filtration cycle except between 2 generic choices with a jumper position.Īnybody know if with this control, whether the filter cycle would start immediately upon powering up, or if it would wait the 12 hrs, etc? So my spa friends.what could cause this filter pump to run all the time? The heater properly cycles on and off as needed. The problem is that the filter pump runs all them time. Not sure this kind poster, attempting to help, fully understood our particular problem. My first guess, a dirty filter or intermittent pressure switch is causing the heater not to energize 100% of the time it's calling for heat, so it's running much longer to maintain temp.Ģnd guess- bad heater or bad heater wiring, or maybe even a bad circuitboard on the pressure switch or heater circuit. Is the tiny "heat" light lit on the topside when it's chugging away on low speed? Does it ever come on? Does it ever go off?
