Self-Diagnostic Error Codes
The Spa Power 600 controller has extensive self diagnostic capabilities. In the event of a problem it will indicate
an error number according to the nature of the problem. The error numbers and their meanings are listed below.
Note: When in an error state the alarm can be muted by pushing theAIR/AUX button.
Error 1 (H20) - Prime Failed
This is not necessarily a problem with the SP600 itself, but indicates that no water is being detected in the heater housing. Prime
failed is a special case in that it can be recovered from by pushing a button. A push of the pump button will run the pump for 60
seconds to try to get water to the heater. If successful normal operation will resume. If unsuccessful, Error 1 (H20) will be indicated on
the display again.
Error 2 - Not Used. With any Error 3-8, spa operation will stop and not continue until the controller is
reset. (Switched off and on again at the main power supply)
Error 3 - Stuck Button
This error indicates that one of the buttons in the touch pad is stuck or has been held down for more than one minute. This may be
caused by the pool cover pressing on the touch pad, or water getting into the touch pad or by damage to the touch pad or its cable.
Try to reset the spa. If there is still a problem then contact your spa pool reseller.
Error 4 - No Water Sensor
This error indicates a problem with the optical water sensor in the heater. The problem may by caused by the sensor being
disconnected or by damage to the sensor. Try to reset the spa. If there is still a problem then contact your spa pool reseller.
Error 5 - Overtemperature
This error indicates that the digital temperature sensor in the heater or pool has detected a temperature of 45 C or more. This may
not be a problem with the SP600, it may be caused by excessive pump use in hot weather, or pump failure. Turn off the spa and allow
time for the water to cool. If there is still a problem then contact your spa pool reseller.
Error 6 - Thermal Cut Out Tripped
This error indicates that the safety electromechanical over temperature cut out on the heater has operated. This is not necessarily a
problem with the SP600. It may have occurred from an air lock around the element, high temperatures during shipping, or failure of
the pump. This automatic cut out will only reset once the element has cooled below about 38 C. The unit must then be reset before it
will resume operation. (Switch off and on at the mains power supply).
Error 7 - Stuck Relay
This error indicates a problem with the heater control circuitry inside the unit. Contact your spa pool reseller.
Error 8 - No Temperature Data
This error indicates a problem with the digital temperature sensor in the heater or pool wall or that both the in heater and in pool
sensors are connected. Check that only one sensor is connected and that it has not become disconnected or damaged. Try to reset
the spa. If there is still a problem then contact your spa pool reseller.
