Like the Man said, the ozone-ator shorted (water back flowed through its 10 year old check valve)! Thanks Spa Man!
Thanks Spa Man! Excellent video, very informative, and i like that you go home and find out why something doesnt work, Not many would bother. Anyway ive had flow problems for months, intermittently, so im gonna try this fix, as you cant just replace the flow sensor on a gecko (unfortunately) Keep posting! Good on ya!
Nice video
Good vid. I would have put the cover on before starting it so in the event your work didnt work and it leaks it does spray on the circuit board.
Hello, I own an Emerald Spa DS4, 2004 I believe, and I recently moved and brought my hot tub as well. The tub actually was not functional for the past year and a half though, due to the heater being fried as well as the pressure switch, but before I figured this out, I replaced the circuit board, the fuses, even the transformer.. I replaced the circuit board because I noticed that the control pack box was open for who knows how long and it looked like water got in and did alot of damage.. 1 spot that was really noticeable, yet not on the "actual" circuit board, but rather the wire terminal, was the spot where the red wire and the white wire go in was melted... I was able to reconnect the red wire without any issue, however I can't seem to find the neutral wire that would connect to the circuit board... Meaning I have the 4 wires coming from my gfci box, the black, red, green and white, and they go INTO the wire terminal in the tub's power pack, the green comes out of the terminal and splits up and all grounds connects to where they should, the black also properly connects to the board as with the red, but as for the white... There just isn't one... Coming out of the terminal that is. Period... So long story short, my main question is: Where does the neutral wire usually go after the wire terminal? Basically where does it connect on the circuit board, if at all? I can't find a single schematic or diagram, even a single picture of a Emerald Spa DS4's power pack with the door open so I can use it as a reference.... Any help would be more than appreciated... If u can help with this, I'll order all my remaining parts through
you exclusively....lol
Thanks for the great info. Where do you purchase your Gecko heater element?
spa man. question I have the exact Gecko controller and its tripping my 50a breaker. I've disconnected the pumps, heater and it still trips. I checked both incoming wires Red/Black and both read 121V. If all devices are unhooked from the controller and it still trip? Does it mean the controller is bad?
Josh's 1st/foremost mistake was purchasing a Dynasty hot tub, but hey maybe Josh is just simply a nice guy & wants to provide job security for the spa Tech Guy.
That’s but a fair comment. I’ve had a dynasty forever and love it. It puts all others to shame.
Hello I'm wondering if the heater was just leaking or if it wasn't working properly. If it was just a leak, can't you just replace the gaskets? I have this same spa and it's only a couple years old. I needed to get access to the heater pipe (rag got sucked in) and when I put it back together there is a terrible leak at the joining pieces. I feel I really got it tightened down but I thought I would get a spanner and tighten a little more without damaging. Any ideas?
Was there an issue with the heater that wasn’t mentioned? Why replace the entire heater for a gasket replacement and possible element change if corroded?
The Heater was not working and if you replace just the element you run the risk of it leaking.Ive never had good luck replacing the elements in the past and have stopped doing it that way....If I replace the entire heater , tube , sensors and everything the problem aways goes away..Hope that Helps. Thanks For Watching & SUBSCRIBING
My hot tub is over heating.do you suggest replacing the whole heater or is it another issue
I've got nearly the same setup on my Dr. Wellness G12 Tub from 2014. I've got a FLO error. Pulled the filters, and it's still there. Installed new filters and with or without, it's still throwing FLO. All jets are open. There is a REDICUOLOUS amount of foam behind the access so I can't locate the FLO sensor. Any ideas??
Depending on the age of the sensors and how often you change the water and how well you are taking care of the chemicals in the hot tub...
Problem no Flo error
(1) Filter
(2) sensors
(3) Diverter is broken or in wrong position
(4)worn out or broken impeller
Lastly do the tubes on the inside have a lot of crap or scum ? we use this product to plush and clean amzn.to/3S4k6up
and it has helped in some cases like this

Hello again Spa Man. Question: Can I replace a Gecko Heater 9920-101435 with a 9920-101449? Seems the only difference is that the 435 is 4Kw and the 449 is 5.5Kw. Or are are other differences? Thanks in advance
Just replaced my on my dynasty spa, I have a k-52 display panel and its now flipped and the controls are upside down. I cannot find a fix for it online please help.
Having issues with blown fuses for pump 2. I checked pump and it's capacitor and it checked out. Had it running dry at 220v drawing 5.1 amps so that seems OK. Now it would seem that my geco spa pack also has a capacitor for the pump and that it may have blown. If that's the case, do you think replacing it myself is feasible?
If you can find the part and You have the skills then Yes go for it get it done...My first question is what caused it to blow(chicken or the egg)If the motor/pump is older then 7 years I would have it completely rebuilt motor and wet side... As for the board there has to be a reason it blew ...The fact it is a Geco pac could be the reason.. Its a good product but it is a cheaply built product .. Hope this Helps Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING
@@spaman5440 Thanks again for helping me out on this issue. I really appreciate your input. Now assuming I need to replace the geco pack once again, is it possible to replace it with another better built pack from a different company? Also if I have pump 2 rebuilt, will the cost of that be substantially lover than the cost of buying a new one?
And if I was filthy rich, i wouldnt even be here. Ide replace the whole spa.
@@Daniels656993 Ok ...You have a lot going on so I would say...give Scoot a call at the Arizona Hot Tub Factory and ask him what he would do ...
Why you didn’t show takin old heater out?
Mine is leaking same area but still heating. Do I still need to replace the entire tube or can I get the black split ring coupler thing and gaskets and just replace those?
No you can just replace the gaskets as long as the tube is in good condition. Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING
@@spaman5440 My heater is still working as well. Where can I purchase 2 O- Rings. Only one side is leaking... but I should probably replace both . Do you know what size the O Ring is...and where I can get them? Thanks for the video.
Can i run a 5.5kw heater in a pack that came with a 4k?
You can but I Wouldn't
Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING
@@spaman5440 ended up replacing with the 4k, thanks!
i dont have gate valves do i have to drain tub
Yes.. When the Hot Tub does not have gate valves you do have to empty to tub do all of the repairs needed and then refile. Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING
I've got a lazyboy spa with a brand new 2 speed pump and a gecko controller. The high speed won't engage, it hums for a few seconds then the whole system shuts down so I have to engage low speed again. Any ideas?
It sounds like you need to have thePump & motor Reconditioned... Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING
@@spaman5440 thanks for the response. It's a brand new pump so how would you recondition a new pump? Is there anything on the controller that could be an issue?
Give Scott a call at the shop After 9 a.m. most mornings You can find the # at ArizonaHotTubFactory.com
Should've went with Balboa.
Does he still post videos? I have a question
He does still post...Call him at the office.. He usually fixing tubs out in the back Shop.
Why can’t you just replace the O rings?
it wasn't just the O rings/gaskets the heater tub was rusted out and the home owner said heater wasn't working.
was the original heater leaking current to ground? why not replace the 2" gasket only?
The heater was not working.
