My Winer Project

<< < (2/2)

Alicatt:
A bit more progress, most things are running, the LED light was connected round the wrong way so it didn't work until I swapped it round
Took this pic last night apologies for the terrible iphone pic




Also found that the wiring has really been hacked and that the control panel has no control over the heater, the heater is wired directly to the breaker, I will pull the control panel off and check out what has gone wrong on it for it to have been hacked, the original heater works after a fashion, one of the temperature sensors was stuck but a wriggle and it is now operating, you can hear the water boil in the heater if you disconnect the circulation pump. Just now I have it connected to a 16A breaker which does not give a lot of headroom to have everything on at the same time!

Off on holiday at the end of next week so not much work will be done... and the tub will be cold for my stay-at-home son ... can't see him having a party with it, and the other kids are now sorting themselves out to see who gets first soak :D

Great job! The tub looks as good as new.

Thanks, it is all working except the backlight on the display, just before I went on holiday earlier this month I changed out all the relays on the relay board as one of them for pump 3 was sticking on, so at the cost of them $10 for 12 relays + postage and packing making a total of $14 and they are the original fitment on the board, if they have lasted 10+ years then great. While I had the board out there was a revision date on it of Oct 2006 So I guess that gives me a ball park age of my tub. We are just back and I have cleaned out the jets and pipework and re-filled the tub but won't get a chance to use it before Sunday.

Also the CD input for the audio is working as is the FM radio so we can have some background music while relaxing :)

Next door, they have started tearing down the dividing wall and hedge between our properties and they are about to start a new extension and garage so I may have to move the tub shortly.

Listening music while lingering on the hot tub is really relaxing.
