My booster pump is not working. There is voltage

Thank you for posting your question here on Fixya.com.

It may be a small part such as the capacitor or the starting switch, but could also be more severe such as the winding itself. You will also want to examine the shaft where it passes thru the pump and motor and look for signs of rust from a pump seal leak. Start with the capacitor. Use a digital multi-meter (DMM), preferably with a capacitor setting, or an analog meter set for Ohms. With an analog, you should see the needle deflect as if testing a closed circuit then it will slowly drop to 0 if the capacitor is good. If it doesn't move or moves and stays to the side showing a closed circuit the capacitor is bad. If you notice a burn hole near the terminals on the end of the capacitor do not bother to test it. If you do not have access to a meter you can try grounding the posts together with a screwdriver to see if they arc although It is not a very reliable test method. Be sure you are holding on to an insulated handle for the tool you use to short the terminals together or you can get a good poke. If you are not familiar with testing these parts your best bet would be a local electric motor repair shop to see if the motor can be repaired or if it would need to be replaced. They should also be able to ensure there is no pump damage. If you wish to continue to try to repair it yourself please comment with any questions you have as you work thru the pump and motor.

LifeSmart LS350 Plus Hot Tub Jet Spa. Can I convert my LifeSmart LS350 Plus 110v to a 230V

Question edited for clarity. Question moved from Computers category. Yes if you swap everything that is connected to electricity over to 220 volts. It is marketed as a 110 volt spa eliminating the problems of running 220 volt power. https://www.google.com/search?q=lifesmart+ls350+plus+220+volt ..

My Maax 461 Spa Heater heats constant until overheat and trips out until manually reset. If jets not turned on, the heater will overheat and trip. Acts like contacts stuck?

Question edited for clarity, 'till' refers to turning over soil, 'tilling', 'until' is the word you need. That sounds like a thermostat problem. The heater should only be on when water is circulating, even if it is just in the standby mode before the high pressure jets are turned on. Contact your installer or one of the parts suppliers in the link. It is unlikely to need a new mainboard. https://www.google.com/search?q=Maax+461+Heater ..

OH Code how to correct so Spa runs?

OH Code is Overheat, so all the things you tried are not relevant. Low flow is normally the reason, too much heat build up in the heat exchanger so it cuts out. So, the next time your spa throws you a OH, OHH or some other "overheat" error code, you know what to do. Clean or replace the spa filter, open all the jets and turn the pump on high. If you still have problems, check over your temp sensor and high limit circuits for wire, plug or sensor problems.
