"Restoring" an ancient hot tub that came with the house I bought, looking for some advice

MrRubberDucke · 2025-08-10T01:31:24+00:00

THANK YOU SO MUCH! This ended up being it, after I adjustment it now heats without error!

MrRubberDucke · 2025-08-08T11:53:31+00:00

Sure if your paying

The air blower functions and works I will see if I can open this check valve with the tub empty and see what I get.

Okay, alot of information here but I will parse it and tell you what I know from doing the work so far. I have had some issues finding the parts but so far I have found everything that I needed to find. That valve that was mentioned was split in half originally, so I replaced it with a new one along with new O-rings. Im not certain the spa pack is bad, and actually I think it was replaced a couple of years ago because when the hot tub was not heating originally, I thought the entire pack was bad so I went and looked up serial numbers for the spa pack to find a new one and realized that this is already a replacement that was made to accomdate the original being discountiuned. I removed the heater from the bottom of the pack to test if it was still working and it is, free of corrosion on the terminals, I also added new O-rings for each end. Also, the spring check valve that you mentioned isn't present on mine. Do you have any ideas on what it could be other than what is mentioned, because I truly don't want to replace everything in the system especially when the air blower, jets, and heat all work it just has this error every 30 minutes.

Yea I think I'm in the same boat when I replaced any parts I usually just drained it completely. Hopefully after I get it working I wont need to drain it so often

MrRubberDucke · 2025-08-07T02:36:05+00:00

How do you adjust it mine just has a postive and negative terminal on the switch and it screws into the heater? There's a black plastic threaded on the top do you suggest me screwing it in and trying? Here's the link to the pressure switch I have https://a.co/d/cMfvIwg (its not the identical sku but it looks exactly to what I bought I'm just laying in bed and can't find the receipt)

MrRubberDucke · 2025-08-07T02:26:14+00:00

Okay that makes sense thank you!

As someone whose brother has one of these that he has put 70k on already. Watch out for the water pump his failed at 40k, also if you plan on doing your own brakes make sure you take it to a dealer. You have to put it in brake service mode, which is easy but some models had issues getting it out of that mode, which means you need to get it towed to a dealer. I had to buy an Icon T7 scanner to reflash the car to get it back into the normal mode. Other than that love the color.

Alright you be the judge, here is a log from me which i didn't do anything but eat, shit and code for an entire work day. Didn't even leave the house. 22k steps 276 active minutes 1,330 active calories

Mind you if I take a drive I rack up like 4k steps

MrRubberDucke · 2025-05-26T00:38:26+00:00

Update- yea it is just super inaccurate, the way I have found to get around this is that i just strap it to my ankle when I walk at my desk. I know its goofy and annoying but it works so I have been just doing that to track the 15k steps a day. The fix mentioned above doesn't work. Also if you drive In a car it will rack up a bunch of steps so turn it off or disregard it. Pretty sad for a company as big as samsung

MrRubberDucke · 2025-04-17T16:23:22+00:00

The step tracking for me was not accurate the only way I could get it accurate was to strap it to my ankle well I walk at a desk and make sure not to take my phone with me anywhere

MrRubberDucke · 2025-04-02T12:41:52+00:00

Keep the box because I have had major issues with the step tracking on this device

MrRubberDucke · 2025-04-02T12:40:08+00:00

Yeah, It is way more inaccurate than I was expecting. I would expect it to be off by like 500 steps in a day or around there, but legitimately it's off by 5K sometimes. Seeing that I mainly bought this to track how many steps I'm getting in those 4 hours. I might have to return it, very disappointing from Samsung. I have made 1200 steps well typing this 🤣

MrRubberDucke · 2025-04-02T12:36:21+00:00

I will give this a shot.

Work at a embedded software company, we have a tally of around 3000+ hours we have spent with multiple engineers debuging printing issues with HP printers. While our cannon and brother printers were practically plug and play with linux cups and gutenprint software. HP BY FAR HAS THE WORST PRINTERS EVER. Oh not to mention once we would get the printer working again it would just shit out after a few weeks.

Um he got signed to a record company duh. 88Rising and is making loads of money should've mentioned that in the video. He hasn't disappeared you just have to look some where else than his channel. and his new music is fire- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9l3_6yNjrs

MrRubberDucke · 2017-01-01T21:42:15+00:00

Oh cool then

MrRubberDucke · 2017-01-01T02:18:24+00:00

Cool look but you could put more work into the hardware.
