This could be a bad heater element. easy way to tell is to fill tub all the way to the normal water level turn power off open control box and disconnect wires going to heater be sure not to break leads off when you disconnect so if this is not the problem you can hook back up after disconnecting make sure wires are not touching any thing and turn power on if it stays on you need a new heater element, if not try unplugging things from box one by one until u find the one that allows the breaker to stay on.
I think you have a small leak somewhere that is causing the GFI to kick off. ... and it is probably quicker than 2 seconds.
Look carefully inside the control box - that is where I found the leak in mine.
After you get it fixed (and you may have to buy a new control) pat yourself on the back for having saved yourself at least $250.00.
Good luck with your project.
