I cant move the jandy valve for pool return which means I can't turn filter on because if I do pool drains into spa.
Have you tried using the three way toggle switch on the JVA? It might be in the locked position.
If the JVA is not working you can always move the valve manually until you replace it.
First, put the directional toggle switch in the locked (center) position.
Second, loosen the retaining screw on top of the JVA handle about half way to three quarter out.
Third, push down on retaining screw firmly to disengage JVA.
Fourth, while pushing firmly on retaining screw rotate valve manually with handle to desired position.
We have an Jandy Ji8000.
Look up Zodiac Pool systems, on the web site you can find a list of service providers in your area. You may be looking at replacing your automation at this point.
