M500sesp:
Thank you for the replies.  I'll try bypassing the switch and give it a test when I get home tonight.
As a side note that part is 41.31 plus shipping from Backyardplus or 60.65 from our local dealer.  I'll probably go with the dealer since they have them in stock and are local.

Another question.  Is there water pressure behind that pressure switch?  When I unscrew it to take it out, will the water come squirting out?  Or will it just kind of dribble out?  Or should I air on the side of caution and drain the tub completely?
    Thanks,
          Sam

it can be replaced with the tub full...if your quick enough  ;D but I would recommend draining it to avoid a potential mess

  Plus one!     I had one customer try it with the power on, the water squirted out on to the circuit board and short it out, his 50 dollar part turned into 300 for a new board as well..   Like mentioned if your quick you can do it, but draining it is easy and safer as well.
