What do you mean "Jump it"? Check with a meter, ACROSS both hot wires to get a reading of 220-240 volts. do not test across 1 hot and the meter lead on ground! You probably are not getting proper voltage to the hot tub. Or you may have a burned system fuse normally 20-25-or 30 amp fuse, which is found within the control box of the spa.
the float in the tub.their may be something caught under it
the water valve,use a meter set to check ac voltage and check for 120 volts ac at the plug to it,if has 120 when supposed to fill valve is bad so long at it has water supply to it
the float switch,use meter set to lowest ohms setting and remove the 2 wires on float switch and check for continunity(zero ohms) if meter reads OL replace float switch
the control,check for 120 volts ac to float switch when supposed to fill, if 120 at fill portion yet no fill ,replace control
water supply,if uses flex tube something in cabinet under sink may have pinched water line
WELL YOU HAVE TO USE A VOLT METER CONNECT ONE VOLT METER WIRES TO GOOD GROUND AND THE OTHER VOLT METER WIRES GOES TO EACH SWITCH SPEED.IF VOLT METER GET VOLTAGE A 1 OR 2 CONTROL SPEED RESISTOR BAD.IF RESISTOR BAD YOU WILL GET 1 OR 2 BLOWER MOTOR SPEEDS.IF BLOWER MOTOR WORKING.CHECK THE AC AND HEATER CONTROL SWITCH FUSE OR CHECK BLOWER MOTOR FUSE AND RELAY.IF ALL GOOD SO FAR CONTROL SWITCH ITSELF COULD BE FAULTY.
check the altenator with an VOLT/OHM METER
If you do not have one any auto parts store like Auto Zone sells these at a cheap price. Now that the red and black probes and place them on the battery, red ond positive Black on Negative. the meter has to be set on the DC mode. Make very sure of this so the meter doesn't not short out. With the engine running you should get a reading if 13.5r volts if the altenator is working. Now to check the diode on the working altenator. Reverse the probes while the egine is still running. If the same reading is shown the diode is bad letting the current reverse itself causing a no charge to the battery. Diodes are for letting the current to run one way which is called Direct Current. If the current is going both ways while the engine is running the battery never receives a charge.
No if the reading shows less than 13.5 volts replace the altenator no matter what for this altenator is giving a weak charge
Make sure the water is turned on to the machine. Set the machine to start the cycle. Put a volt meter on the water valve terminals. At the fill portion of the cycle you will read 120 volts at these terminals. If you read 120 volts and no fill, the water valve is bad. If you do not read 120 volts, the timer is bad. Fill the tub with water using a pot. Set the machine at the pump out cycle. If it pumps out, the pump is good. If it does not pump out it could be a bad pump or bad timer.
the pressure switch is a air diaphram switch.
afix your meter then remove the tube that goes from the switch to the tub at the tub and with your mouth blow into the end of the tube like you are filling a balloon the switch should click softly and your meter should show conductivity
do you have a volt meter ,and the wiring diagram for your dryer.if so we can fix this by email.your going to disconnect one side of the element[there are two wires that end up feeding the element electricity,each side is a curcit].and isolate that side with tape,but so you can still get a volt meter probe on it.now if you set your meter to AC volts and scrap one of the probes into ground[the body of the dryer,anywhere]so it gets past the paint into metal.now take the other probe with the dryer on in heat mode and started.and now touch the wire you have disconnected and then the other side that's still connected to the element.the side that did not have 110 volts is the side of the circuit that has something not working.so using your wiring diagram,or if you can see visually you still keep one probe to ground[any where] and go back to the next part,until you find where the voltage has stoped.and replace that part.almost all parts are showned closed on the diagram unless other wise shown.so another way to check a part to see if it is closed[meaning,complete or electricity can pass thru it]is to set your volt meter to ohms setting.in this setting if you put the two probes together the meter will go to zero[digital meter] and when you take them apart they will show 1 or the needle will go all the way back,if non digital.the reading you get when you put the probes together is the reading you would get from a part if it is good,[its called continuity]but one side of the wires must be disconnected so not get false readings.the thermostats and fuses will have countinuity[also your new element is a good example of something that has contunity[remember one wire must be disconnected.i hope this helps ill be there if you need advise God bless ,tom
low voltage can cause this if you can use a meter do a voltage drop test plug the meter under where you have the washer plugged in read the meter then start the washer and and see how much the volts drop if falls 12 volts have an outlet promblem let me know i will hang with you
