If there is a ground wire there and it is attached it should read correct. It may also indicate that there is a loose or missing ground wire somewhere else in the circuit.
Either the GFI is bad or it is tripping because there is a short in the system (obviously, right). I would turn off your panel break, disconnect the GFI and using a meter test to see if there is a short in the system. You would check the hot lead coming from the GFI to the tub and see if it is shorting. If you can't find a short, you should try replacing the GFI. If there is a short then you need to search for the short. Hope this helps and good luck!
usually means you have the hot and ground wires on the wrong screws..black wire on copper screw, white wire on silver screw and green wire on green screw.really need to fix the issue or the gfciwill not protect you
if it is a gas bulb (mercury vapor, metal halide, or high pressure sodium) the bulb needs to be replaced. they "cycle" when they go bad for a few weeks then completely stop working
