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 Pete http://www.makesmeshutter.com
