Possible Causes

Control PCB failing internal self-check, Sensor readings out of calibration range, Firmware corruption, Intermittent PCB connection

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before any inspection.

  • 1. Full power reset: Unplug the spa for at least 30 minutes, then reconnect and reset the RCD. Sometimes internal self-test errors clear after a full discharge.
  • 2. Stable power source: Ensure the spa is on a dedicated outlet with stable voltage. Avoid long extension cords.
  • 3. Environmental check: Protect the control unit from direct sun, heavy rain, and extreme temperatures, which can affect sensor readings.
  • If E16 continues: The control PCB or internal sensors are likely defective. Replacement of the pump/heater unit is usually required; contact Lay‑Z‑Spa support.
