Hot tub jets and heater turning off to fast

??? - turning off too fast? Problem exactly? Are you saying that the jets don't stay on for the 15 minute cycle once you push the Jets button? If that is the case, then your circuit board is failing - the time chip is the problem. A certified Jacuzzi service center should be able to change the Dallas Time Chip.

Bought the new version of the jacuzzi1.5hpLRC motor. The hook up to the pump is on top instead of the side. Is there tubing we can use to connect the two?

Unless there is a proprietary hook-up ( i coundnt find one) the best thing would be to plumb it in with pvc. They do have Flex PVC pipe but I've never used or heard anything about it so use at your own risk.

How can we adust the air flow on our hot tub?

when you say it's converted to 220 volts , did you just change the voltage on the pump motor or did you also change the voltage on the blower motor as well ?? reason i ask is you might be feeding a 110 motor with 220 power it's turning twice as fast so it makes too much air , might be your cause ?

How do you switch from 240 volts to 115 volts on magnum force pump

Is the motor a Dual voltage capable motor? If so, the diagram for voltage change should be on the label. It is also on the inside of the back cover were the wiring comes into the motor. Most likely it is an AO Smith Motor that Jacuzzi used for their pump. The newer motors today are really easy to switch between voltages. There are 3 male spades on the back of the motor and a wiring plug with 2 female connections. You should easily see a diagram/bold arrow, for which 2 connections/spades are for 240 and which 2 for 120. Just lift and move the plug to one side or the other. 1 spade will not be used. Take a look at the picture: 24491790-w440f4xqb2ju5vbxyy5bo3yg-2-0.jpg

I have a J340 Spa that is throwing the watch dog mode --- error code. I have replaced the temp sensor and the circuit board. Can a malfunctioning circulation pump cause this problem. Thanks.

yes, it can as can the hi-limit as well. Is the watchdog, consistent or does it show up every now and then? If not consistent: then it is an indication that there is a "Potential" problem, not necessarily always indicating a problem is there. Power fluctuation will cause this as well. You may need to monitor for a while.

PUMPS WONT TURN OFF

The pushbutton is electrically isolated from the actual on/off switch for obvious safety reasons. The mechanical coupling mechanism could be broken as could be the switch itself. It is not intended to be repaired by the homeowner but you could try if you are handy. Before investigating, turn offo the circuit breaker to the pump. Likely that is how you had to turn it off anyway. If this is beyond you, call a plumber. Unfortunately, there are very few options.

Purchased spa from in laws, hooked up and found

oops.. lol.. dry the spa out with a fan, and at night, fill it up again and with a real good flashlight snoop around for the wet spot, allot of the time it will be at the motor, look for white or light brown streaks, the pump(s) will need shaft seals replaced. could be cheap OR expensive depending on damage to the pump/motor.here is what I recommend you do if you find it the pump that's leaking SEARCH your area for your local pool pump motor repair guy with free motor testing, and have him do the shaft seal repair. but if the shafts on the motor looks like new (no rust) you can attempt the repair yourself. best of luck with you used spa ..

Jacuzzi start/run capacitator what does it do

to develop the start torque needed to run a two hp or more motor a capacitator is used to temperarly boost the power up(faster than a human can do it) so that motor gets a short extra jolt of power so it can start to turn , unfortuniatly these "caps" dry out in a few seasons from all the heat they make in use and no longer give that "Jolt" needed motor fails to start to move and they require replacement to makeit right again

Jacuzzi pump shuts off after short interval.

probably heater, alot of older spas/jacuzzi have a circulation pump connected to the heater. when the heater starts to heat and gets to hot or draws too much load - it shuts down.

this happened to mine and I had to replace the heater?

I have an 11 year old Jacuzzi Magnum Force 1227

Probably 1.5 HP but if you can read any of the nameplate data on the motor it would be helpful to confirm. A better approach might be to size the new pump to the volume of water in the pool.

If all you are going to replace is the pumps motor then can you provide at least the amp ratings off the motor? Those should help verify what your old unit's horsepower really is.

I have a Jacuzzi Magnum 1500 pool. I want to replace the bearing on it. Which bearing size should I buy Motor is a Century Centurion 7-186087-20

Most pool pump motors use 6203 2RS. There are two in each motor. If you haven't done this before I wouldn't attempt it. Once the motors get to a certain age you cannot get the 4 thru bolts out to disassemble the motor. Plus you need a bearing puller. I suggest buying a replacement motor for under $200.00
