Hot Tub GFCI Breaker Keeps Tripping..6 Things To Check For.(DIY Spa Repair) Arizona Hot Tub Factory

(Before You Start... SHUT OFF THE BREAKER)
In this video I will show you 6 Common things that will cause a GFCI breaker to trip...This is a process of elimination it does take a little time to figure out what is causing the breaker to trip.
(One thing that helps me )...If you have a cell phone camera take pictures as you remove each connector or mark each connector with a sharpie.... it makes the replacement process go smoothly.
BalBoa Spa Equipment is one of the best in the industry and very easy to figure out what is causing the problem if the GFCI Breaker keeps tripping there are really only 6 things to check for if by chance all six components check out ? its most likely the board.( check out my other Video on how to change the board on a BalBoa Pack)

I just took on a "free" hot tub from a friend that has not run in a few years. Wired it up and it worked for 2 days. Then the breaker tripped. Sure enough it was the ozonator!! I knew nothing about hot tubs until your video. Now I feel like a hot tub repair man after watching this. Thanks so much for putting this out in the universe...VERY helpful!!

[@tinalalonde1438]

Thank you soooo much. My man listened to your video and took the pump apart and it was the bearings i think. It works again. Happy wife, Happy life. Keep up the great work. Tina in Ottawa, Canada

[@ampossot]

You are the best, Sr. I will check mine and update this post once it gets fixed. Thanks. UPDATE: Once I removed the cover and start checking for leaks, I noticed drops coming out from the inner Clearray system (Jacuzzi-J345), rust in the nuts and humidity in the floor of the tub, close to one of the pumps. I disconnected the Clearray system from the tubing, the system board and removed it completely from the tub. Now the tub has been working for more than 3 hours without tripping the breaker. I think I found it! Thanks!

I just want to give you a huge thanks for making your videos. Specifically this one. We got a new sundance cameo 880 yesterday (here in AZ) and filled it and just kept tripping the breaker trying to turn it on. It was very frustrating. We figured out by doing the elimination process (after checking the gfci wiring per your other videos) it is the blower tripping the gfci so at least we know. Hopefully we can get a tech out quickly from our dealership to deal with the blower. Thanks so much for taking the time to do these!!

Thank you for the video I never usually comment but great video. I tried for hours today to try and get my hot tub to stop tripping the switch everytime I powered it on... after watching your video I just went back out in the dark with a flood light and I think it is the heating element cable. 1 of the round circles on the nut is burned and managed to get my hottub to power on and stay on after disconnected the heating element cable and the hot tub stayed on. So now need to find the correct replacement cable to buy a new one. But your video helped so much. Now I have diagnosed the problem. Thank you very much. I think saved me hiring a hot tub engineer and money. Thank you

I repair for a living. Don't work on hot tubs as of yet. But after what you just showed me. This is just like working on all the appliances, water heaters, furnaces, and AC I troubleshoot and repair. I will not turn down the next hot tub repair. Just last night one of my customers said GFCI would not reset. I went up to look at the electrical. Nothing more than they were not resetting the breaker before turning it back on. Found no problems after resetting it. Everything ran fine. It was an easy money service call. But that said. Yes, I am going to start working on Hot tubs now. Thanks for the heads-up video. I like your style in video.

Your video saved me. It was the Ozonator, that when it was plugged in, kept tripping the breaker. Spa tech had told us it was the main GFCI breaker, so we had an electrician replaced it, but then nothing would turn on. Found your videos and your tip on the Ozonator. I disconnected it from the panel, and the pumps and blower turned on. Only thing now is that with the ozonator off, a "Clicking" sound comes on. Is it because of the Ozonator being disconnected? Waiting for a new Ozonator to arrive to install it. Thank you so very much! subscribed and have made sure to mention your videos as many times as I can!

They kept trying to tell me it was the ozonator well after doing some research I found out there's a funny little tiny plastic part called the backflow valve because nothing else is leaking on the hot tub last winter it leaked all the water out and after looking at the mold and everything inside it all came from that resonator I have a brand new heater brand new split couplers brand new everything there's almost nothing this hot tub doesn't have that's not brand new how can a little electric part have water in it boggles my mind anyways ozoneated well I'm going to try a back flow valve.

***Question***Right off the bat I think you helped me! Last spring my hot tub tripped a couple times after I had everything clean and prepped after the winter. I also noticed the water level slowly going down. Instead of figuring it out, I just shut it down (busy times). Now, a year later I need it back up and running. Last week I opened the panels and turned the breaker on. I instantly noticed water spraying from the bolts on the heater. The breaker quickly tripped. Now it doesn’t come in at all. Your video showed me that I have a heater problem. My question is, because my system doesn’t do anything at all now, should I replace all the components in the box, or should I just replace the heater and fuses? Appreciate anything you can offer!!

Trying to tell what the cause of my GFCI instant tripping when pump switch pushed on a 2009 Hot Spring Jetsetter with a Wavemaster 7000 pump unit, I found the culprit was corrosion on the output shaft at the pump bearing side...scraped and wire brushed + WD40 solved the issue...some "repair" folks would have just replaced it for $$$, without even looking for that causing the trip!

[@spaman5440]

If the cir pump is any older then 5 to 7 years ??? You are on borrowed time and it would be better to replace it.. Ive had pumps like that go out and burn the board connections because it didn't trip.. I look at it like tires on a car after so many years just because they hold air might be dry rotted and leave you stranded with a flat...Just food for thought. Right on fixing it your self.

Hey Spa Man, thanks for all the great videos! I'm working on a friends Balboa and it trips the breaker sporatically. It runs fine for a while and usually when the cycle shuts down it can trip the breaker. I tried disconnecting everything and repluging like you said. It's not the heater or ozone devices but seems to be the 2 speed left hand motor that is the problem but the motor runs fine. Replaced the main breaker. Any suggestions about the motor? Thanks a mill.
