| GFCI TRIPPING |
I have a 2000 hot spring spa. w/the IQ200 control unit. have had no problems for 8 years, I changed the water yesterday and turn on. the next day i check water temp. and it was still cold... I found the gfici 30 amp had tripped. would not reset. check power ok, heat had no shorts. Just messing around checking things, I removed the aluimum cover for holding the plastic cover and the heater works. I put the steel screw back in the the holder and in trips. done this 10 times and same results. the only thing I sae was a lot of condensation becase the water cas cold, heater housing was wet and small amount of water on floor of pump and control area. |

Re: GFCI TRIPPING
The 30 amp breaker only runs the heater, so we know it's in that circuit. Unhook the heater wires on the IQ2000 - far left wires, see if the 30 still trips.
There could be moisture on the circuit board. This would trip a GFI.
Check the 3 wires that go from the left circuit board (terminal board) to the main circuit board (red, blk & white). Make sure the wires are Ok and not nicked.
Keep us posted
