Soon to be jacuzzi owner.... few questions

<< < (2/2)

ray:
as for the stereo... i wouldn't fix it... it will keep getting wet and then you'll just have to fix it again... just get a good portable bluetooth speaker... ie bose... it will probably cost the same if not cheaper than fixing it... also you'll get more use out of it.  my 2 cents.. :)

I'm willing to spend that kind of money I just want to make sure I get the right parts the first time. Could you give me a link for the correct ones? Also readsomewhere about an upgrade? Is there one it being a 2007? And lastly I take it, it needs to be empty to replace the lights?

    You can change both lights with water in the spa, as far the part # the main light is 6560-420 and there are two different waterfall types.   If the W,fall is square with the shut off on the side the part number is 6560-422 if it's the new style w,fall with the shut off on the top you need to replace the whole thing. part# 2540-904 and they are not interchangeable.

Good stuff, Jim!

Well Saturday I went and picked it up. The guy clearly didn't know much and it at first worried me. The build date on the tube it late 2009 so I'm guessing it's in fact a 2010 not a 2007 as I first believed. After getting it home and having my electrician over Sunday to wire it up I found one of the ribbon wires unplugged from the main control and on the blue box there was a vacant spot on top that was yellow and bottom that was black. The blue box had power as I could see a led inside the box light up. I plugged the ribbon into the yellow spot and all my lights work! Very excited. I then popped the covers off the speakers and they look like they are shot. Very basic corrosion and disintegrated. I then realized the radio wouldn't power on like it did when I first looked at it. (The seller looked shocked when it powered on because he told me it didnt). I tested the wiring and concluded the radio isn't getting power. Traced more wires and it seems the inverter is not functioning. Not sure if it's serviceable but I see a new one is only about 70 bucks. It had power going to it but isn't producing DC voltage out. The selector switch is in the correct spot also. Looking at the back it has very deeply recessed safety screws. So I think for the trouble I'll just buy a new one. Lastly where can I buy new speakers? Also should I go with oem jacuzzi or is there a better option with after market? I question sound quality for how small the 4 little speakers are. Other then that now I just need to find out what type of sanitizer I want to use. He gave me new filters and a new nature2 spa stick thing. But that's only good with chlorine from what I've read. Others have told me to use bromine. I'm at a loss. I also have an ozone maker on it I discovered but I have no way to be sure it's still "good" some people claim they last 18 years other say 2-5.
