How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power before unplugging or plugging any control cables.

  • Check cable connection: Open the control box and locate the topside control cable connector. Unplug and replug it firmly.
  • Inspect cable: Follow the cable from the topside to the pack, looking for cuts, pinches, or rodent damage.
  • Test with replacement panel: If available, connect a known‑good LA Spas topside to determine if the original panel is faulty.

If a good panel does not restore function, the control board likely needs replacement.
