How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker before unplugging sensors.

  • Identify sensors: Locate all temperature and high-limit sensors connected to the control pack.
  • Check connections: Unplug and firmly reseat each sensor connector. Inspect for corrosion or bent pins.
  • Verify correct parts: Ensure any recently replaced sensors are the correct Master Spas / Balboa-compatible 10k NTC sensors for your model.
  • Test resistance: Use a multimeter to confirm each sensor reads within expected range for the current water temperature.
  • Replace faulty sensor: If any sensor reads open, shorted, or far off spec, replace it.
  • Firmware/configuration: If SE persists with known-good sensors, the control pack may have a configuration or firmware issue that requires professional service or replacement.
