The water is not heating. The display panel temperature fluctuates - 79, 83, 97 jumps around and the jets go off and on. Eventually OH (overheat) shows. We turned th spa off, let the temperature panel go down, turned the spa back on, hit the temperature down button to reset but it did not work. What do we do next?

Pump one is the pump that does all the work in your spa. It handles the heating and filtering. If pump one does not work, It will not heat. It is likely pump one is gone but a technician would be needed to determine if it is the pump or the spa pack.

Hard to say without being there. Two things to check though. First be sure the new board is the correct one. Many times parts will change and replacements will have special instructions for retrofitting.
The other thing to check is be very sure the plug on the new board lines up with the receptor. On a multi pin plug if the pins don't line up you can get just the problem you describe. I hope this helps, sorry it can't be more.

SOURCE: Dream Maker spa - does my dream maker spa 4 person

Depending upon the age, the Dream Maker has a digital thermostat which is easy to change but to be honest I don't think that is the cause of your problem.

Check the keypad connection on the PCB (circuit board).

t could be either the keypad or PCB at fault and withou trying one or the other you'll not be able to determine the problem. My advise would be for you to contact your local parts supplier and ask them whether or not they can supply you a keypad to try with the option to send it back for a refund if it doesn't cure the problem.

A keypad can be trial fitted to the PCB, just unplug the old one, plug the new one in and turn on the power. There's no need to install the keypad to the spa, therefore you wont damage it in anyway.

If the keypad doesn't cure the problem, change the PCB.

Ian.

SOURCE: over heating

Try turning the power off and back on again.

If this doesn't solve the problem you have further issues.

Gaffers and Sattler oven temp fluctuates drastically

It sounds like your Gaffers and Sattler oven may have a problem with the thermostat or temperature sensor. These components help regulate the oven temperature and can cause fluctuations if they are not functioning properly. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Make sure the oven is properly calibrated. Some ovens have a calibration adjustment that can be used to fine-tune the temperature. Consult the manual or manufacturer's website to see if your oven has this feature, and follow the instructions to calibrate the oven if necessary.
  2. Check the oven thermostat. The thermostat controls the heating element and can cause temperature fluctuations if it is not working correctly. You may need to replace the thermostat if it is faulty.
  3. Check the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor measures the oven temperature and sends a signal to the thermostat to adjust the heating element as needed. If the sensor is not functioning properly, it can cause temperature fluctuations. You may need to replace the sensor if it is faulty.
  4. Check the heating element. The heating element is responsible for generating the heat inside the oven. If it is not working properly, it can cause temperature fluctuations. You may need to replace the heating element if it is faulty.

Why wont hot tub heat with jets on losing temperature on 110 volt

My first question would be about the outside temperature. What is the outside temperature?
Hot tubs that are designed to operate on 115v only have 1.5kw heaters and if the outside temperature is below 50 deg F they tend to not keep up to 103 deg water while being used. They are also designed to not heat while the high speed pump is operating.
Does it stay up to temperature on a normal basis?

Hi have problem with canadian spa (balboa mrspa1) control panel digital reading when turned on goes to OH,circulation pump will not run

OHS, OH, or SPA TEMP LMT Message There is an "Over Heated Spa" (OHS or OH) Water Condition.

One of the Water Temp Sensors has detected 110°F (43.3°C) Incoming Water Temp and Spa Functions are Disabled. System will Auto Reset when Water Temp is below 108°F (42.2°C). Check for Extended Pump Operation or High Ambient Temp, or contact your Dealer or Service Organization.

Spa Water Cool Down
• In order for the Spa Water Overheat Error Message to Automatically Reset and Clear, the Spa Water Must Cool to below 108°F (42.2°C).
• Check the Topside Panel Display to see if the "OHS", "OH", or "SPA TEMP LMT" Spa Water Overheat Error Message has Cleared. If the Error Message has Not Cleared, the Spa Water is still too Hot to Continue Testing.
• Either Wait for the Spa Water to Cool Below 108°F (42.2°C), or Exit Now and Retest at a Later time.

In my chevy impala i have no hot air comming out of the vents. The temperture gage reads at about half and then will fluctuate. What could be the problem?

Check your coolant level. When the level goes down, the heater is usually the first unit to show the lack of coolant (no heat). As the coolant decreases, eventually the temperature sensor is intermittently 'out of the water' and can't indicate water temperature, causing the fluctuation. If your coolant is low, find and repair the leak.

Temperature gauge fluctuates

First of all you have a bad heater core that needs to be replaced. Second you may have a bad temperature sensor. Make sure the radiator if full of water

Panel reads HHO-----, no temperature display until activate jets, then shows a temperature drop sometimes down to 65 degrees ,then starts heating upwith jets going

"OH" is an overheat error. In normal function, it is used as a safety shut off if the spa water temperature reaches over 110 degrees in the event of a thermostat failure. But more commonly, (if the water temp hasn't gotten too hot) it indicates that the temp sensor(s) have failed. If you have a digital display on the topside controller of your spa, then it is a circuit board controlled spa pack. Most spa builders use the same control pack manufacturer - Balboa Watergroup. The sensor kit usually consists of 2 probes and wires that plug directly onto the circuit board. Depending on the spa, they could both be located onto the heater manifold, or one on the manifold and one mounted to the tub making direct contact with the water via a thru-wall sensor mount. If I knew the spa manufacturer, I could further assist you. If you replace the sensors, and encounter the same problem... then the circuit board is bad, and usually a costly replacement. The sensors are usually listed as a "BA sensor assy" Hope this helps you,

Spa / hot tub does not heat

Your temperature control is way out of calibration or, it's wired wrong. Remove it and check it in a glass of water. Use an ohm meter across the heater wires. As you add hot wwater, the heater contacts should open.

QCA Opal hot tub display reading OH.

The tub experienced an overheat situation. This may be due to leaving the t stat turned all the way up and not monitoring or the hi-limit sensor is defective. The hi-limit sensor will shut down the heating cicuit if temp gets above 105 D optimally.the fact that the heater light is on is a good sign that things are working at this point.Whether or not a suitable temp(100-103 D) will be arrived at is to be seen. If spa heat kicks off before set temp is reached then replace hi-limit sensor.
