Some tubs with air jets have a sensor that detects water in the piping and cycles the air pump to blow out the water in the air jets. Make sure the faucet is not dripping as the water leaking into the tub could be causing the pump cycling problem.

Hope this helps.

On my 1998 olds aurora, lights are coming on blinking in the middle of the night;killing the battery; have to disconnect battery every night

Your head light switch is the only thing that is capable of turning your head lights on, so I would replace it ! On the other hand you could have a mouse living in the dash, that has chewed through some wiring and at night when it is active it causes a short to turn the lights on. But I would would start with the switch lol

Find air switch for aker swirlbath

Air Switch Repair
It sounds like you have a bad air switch located in your motor.
The air switch is what the air hose connects to on the back of the motor or on the box on top of the motor. The other end of the air hose is connected to the air button on the lip of the tub.
This is a latching air switch and when you push the air button it latches to send power to the motor. When the air button is pushed again it opens the latch in the air switch and stops power going to the motor shutting it off. You need part # TBS-310

My Acer Swirlbath has a mildew smell. It is clean but I'm assuming it is coming from the jets and intake. How do I safely clean out the jets?

I had the same problem and I was told to fill bath with hot water and add a bottle of vinegar and allow it to run for 10 mins.
Then empty and redo it with a a fragment oil in hot water and then empty.
It worked for me.
