Jacuzzi J350 Dead ?

Hi everyone.

As a follow up, I wanted to let you know how I made out.

I pulled the side cover off the tub tonight and opened up the control panel box.

Located the main fuse, which was a Bussmann SC-30 slow blow.

I checked the continuity with my meter and determined it was blown.

After about 30 minutes on the phone with various stoes in my area, to my surprise, my local Home Depot had them in stock.

I ran over to the store and picked them up... popped one of them in the tub and flipped the breaker back on.

It started running !!!!!

The display was reading "ICE"  "ICE"   "ICE", but the water temp was showing 81 degrees.

After about 5 minutes the "ICE" warning disappeared and the tub seems OK..... for now.

I'm going to check it several times tonight to make sure the fuse doesn't blow again.

While at work today, I did call my local Jacuzzi dealer but they didn't have the fuses in stock at the store closest to me, but they did offer to have the service tech drop one off at the closest store on Friday.

They told me that if all the power was out, it was probably that fuse and to try it first before I spent $135 just on the service call.

So far...  I'm Happy !

Jacuzzi Jim:
 Glad it worked!   Fuse could have blown for various reasons, so hard to say if there is an underlying problem.    You will probably be fine!

  And your welcome  ;)

I checked the tub this morning and it's still running and the temp is holding at the 90 deg. temperature I usually set it at when we are not using it and the pumps are working.

Thanks again to all for the help !
