pr is for primeing the pump hit the pump and see if it goes off if not hit the temp botton up or down and see if thjat works for you

Is the motor cycling on and off?Is the braker tripping after two minutes?

Your motor may be locked up or you may have a bad starting compasitor. Remove the cap on the back of the motor and see if you can spin it freely. If so check the compasitor. (a black plastic one will have a small cut out where the wires go. If it's black or blown out it's bad. A silver one will bubble out at the ends. If you can't tell set it on a table, flat bottom down, if it rocks it's bad. It should sit flat) If the motor doesn't spin freely pull the pump out and take the wet end off of it. Once the wet is removed if it spins freely your motors fine and you need to replace the seal and more than likely the impeller you just pulled off that has a split shaft.... This is caused by a pump seal leak going unchecked.

Is this a GFCI plug?

Have you opened the equipment access door and looked in it while it is running. I would look at the pumps to see if one of the seals are leaking. They will leak more on high speed and if you have a cir pump that runs the filter and an additional pump for high speed jet action it would make sense why it is leaking more while you are using it.

You will need to either get a new cover or buy a new extralarge tarp and use as cover. Thanks jj505

Try spa fix a leak. It is a great product that I use on fully foamed spas before I put them up on blocks and start chasing the water. Works 90% of the time.http://spaandpooldepot.com/fix-a-leak-32oz you may find it cheaper somewhere else this was just googles first response. I sell it to my customers here in Austin for $30.00

Was your motor just replaced? I see this issue from time to time. It is caused by the pump overheating. You've either got clogged vents, very rare unless you have a rat problem in the spa, or your motor was replaced with one that has less hp.ex. Either a spa repair company trying to make more money, or a home owner trying to save money deside to replace a 2.5 HP motor with a 1.5 HP motor with out changing the wet end. Now you have a smaller motor trying to push the origanal imperller. Result is motor overheats, thermal overload kicks the motor off, motor cools and comes back on to start the cycle over again.

not too familiar with that brand. If so is error for overheat check filters or run it without. filters could be clogged and is a common cause of overheat error code. Check circulation pump and make sure its working. Also if you recently drained and refilled you could have created a air lock that doesn't allow the pump to move water and its easily fixed by loosening the discharge end of the pump until the air comes out....you will notice it right away

Mine is brand new and won't either! Did you get it fixed?

Your economy spa is equipped with a hot stick. This "hot stick" is nothing more than a PVC manifold that forces the water through multiple 1/2" ports that creates enough friction for the water to heat itself. YOUR HOT TUB HAS NO HEATER. The benefit is that there is no heating element to corrode and replace. The down side is that it takes quite awhile to heat the water. If you start with water that is 55-60 degrees it will easily take 48 hours to hit 100 degrees. Keep in mind that is dependent on the outside air temperature. Good luck with that!

More than likely you have it plugged into a standard wall socket and the breaker that the spa is on has other things like lamps or blenders on the same breaker. If you have a hot tub plugged into a standard outlet you need to be sure it's the ONLY thing on that breaker or else it will trip. Your outlet is 110 and that spa need 120 so it's pushing it to begin with.

Is your spa plumbing tied into the pool plumbing? What exactly are you trying to do?

How cold is it? It may be sensing an ambient freeze condition.

This may be a little late as you may have already found the answer. But most "Fantasy" spas have "Balboa" control system. They are either a heat control knob, or Up/Down arrows on the spa side control system. If you have the know & it is all the way turned to max position, and still not hot enough, then you may well have a faulty "Temperature Sensor". Get a replacement from your local DreamMaker dealership. Easy to replace.

check to make sure all the jets are open, this can cause a restriction, that makes the tub think its the filter

Maybe herehttp://www.rhtubs.com/spa-owners-manuals.htm

Hello,Are the jets coming on when you press the button? Try unplug the control from the board and plug it back in.

Also check out Hottubworks.com as they have all patterns for Dream Maker. Suggest you get a cover which is 2lb density which will last longer and has a doubled wrapped core. The cover will last allot longer than your original and keep more heat in. Here's link http://www.hottubworks.com/SpaCovers/Features.php

Yes.If spa plugs into ordinary outlet, then choose heavy-duty outdoor timer. Use P1261 with GFCI or P1121 without GFCI.If outlet already has GFCI, do not use two GFCIshttp://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Intermatic-P1100-series-sell-sheet.pdfhttp://waterheatertimer.org/Intermatic-timers-and-manuals.html#P1261If spa is hard-wired, then install T101 for 120volt, or T104 for 240Volthttp://waterheatertimer.org/Intermatic-timers-and-manuals.html#T100-series If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/gene_9f0ef4df2f9897e7
