Possible Causes

Worn keypad membrane, Moisture under panel, Damaged ribbon cable, Faulty keypad interface on control board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before removing the topside panel.

  • Dry and clean: Inspect under the panel for moisture. Dry thoroughly and ensure the gasket is intact to prevent future ingress.
  • Check ribbon cable: Ensure the cable is fully seated at both the keypad and control board. Look for visible damage.
  • Test with replacement panel: If available, connect a known-good Aquavia topside panel. If the spa responds normally, replace the original panel.
  • Board diagnosis: If a new panel does not resolve the issue, the control board keypad interface may be defective and require replacement.
