LOW VOLTAGE
At Balboa, it’s been our experience that the majority of the
problems associated with electronic control systems are due
to low voltage.
BROWN OUTS
“Brown outs” can have an effect on the spa’s operation in
a variety of ways. The control panel may go blank, have
scrambled messages on the LCD, or only a few features
will function.
CHECKING THE SYSTEM POWER INPUT FUSE
WARNING
These procedures are performed while the system is
powered up and running under peak loads. Be careful.
Systems that use 230V peripheral devices (below):
Measure between the brown TB1 terminal and F6 power
UÊ
input fuse at F6. You should see 230 volts.
If you determine that there is no voltage at this location,
UÊ
then the system power input fuse needs to be replaced.
Only use a fuse of the same type and amp rating when
you replace any of these fuse.
NOTE FOR ALL SYSTEMS
UÊ
In each situation, the most
likely reason for the system power input fuse to blow is
a pump problem. (cont. next page)
Once the power input fuse has been changed
Check the voltage between the black and red
UÊ
wires again. Acceptable voltage range is between
216V and 264V.
If the system is getting the proper voltage at
TB1, but still doesn’t operate, then test for a
blown power input fuse.
