I have a 10yr old Hot Springs "Hot Spot" with Gecko # SSPA-1-P121 Spa Pack. The spa stopped working. Topside control is new and lights up. My new 2-speed pump that I purchased from Hot Tub Works is ok. To test the circuit board, I unplugged the topside control cable from the board while powered up. The pump is supposed to run according to a Gecko tech. It did not. It appears that the circuit board is bad. I have a difficult time understanding why the circuit board can't be tested and repaired instead of replacing the complete spa pack that Gecko wants me to do. Can I send the circuit board to you or somebody you recommend for testing? Maybe a simple relay, transformer or even the computer chip can be replaced instead of replacing the complete unit. I hate to think that I have been taken to the cleaners by a gecko!! Thank you. Evan

There are companies that will repair spa circuit boards (http://www.hottubworks.com/SpaParts/ElectricalCircuitBoards.php) but we do not offer this service. I would recommend a new board, if you have it repaired you may have additional failures down the road such as capasitors, other relays, etc.

Try Spa-boards.com, they are located in Arizona, but repair boards nation wide, they are great I have used them many times.
