1995 bengal tiger river spa tripping breaker
I HAVE TESTED EVERYTHING OUT AND FOUND THAT THE JET PUMP IS MY PROBLEM. I UNPLUGGED THE JET PUMP FROM THE CIRCUIT BOARD JUST TO DOUBLE CHECK MYSELF, I TRIED ALL THE OTHER FUNCTIONS THEY WERE FINE AND THE BREAKER STAYED ON. IT IS A 115V 20 AMP TUB. I CHECKED THE MOTOR TO GROUND FOR A SHORT IT TURNED UP NEGITIVE, SO I MADE A CORD AND PLUGGED JUST THE PUMP INTO A 20 AMP CIRCUIT, IT RAN. I CHECKED THE AMPS IT WAS PULLING 15.5 AMPS, THE WATER WAS FLOWING GREAT OUT OF THE JETS SO I KNOW THE IMPELLER IS OK THE PUMP IS GOOD. I UNPLUGGED THE MOTOR AN TURNED THE SHAFT BY HAND, SO I KNOW THE PUMP ISNT BOUND UP STRAINING THE MOTOR CAUSING THE HIGH AMPS. I GUESS I NEED TO HAVE THE MOTOR REWOUND OR BUY A NEW MOTOR? IF THERE IS ANYONE OUT THERE THAT HAS HAD A SIMULAR PROBLEM THAT MAY HAVE SOME INFO OR SUGGESTIONS BEFORE I GO BUY AN EXPENSIVE MOTOR I AM LISTENING! " title="Smile" /> THANKS, CHEVY45356

Check the wiring in the control box, looking for burnt wires or a burnt relay. It's worth checking this first then have the pump rebuilt.
