Got a used hot tub and im trying to get it going. Checked the pump out it rons but when i tried connecting it to the control circuit not getting any pwer. Is there some type of interlock or maybe transformer bad? Any suggestions?
FYI...
Balboa does not make spas, just control systems.
but that is enough info to begin a troubleshoot process...

Hopefully you have not fried the motor. To free a stuck motor: try to reach past the strainer to the impeller and turn it. If you can't do that, remove the electric end cover and find a double flat for a wrench where the shaft goes into the motor. Or maybe you can remove the spring thing from the end of the motor and move the shaft with a pair of vise grips or pliers. Don't damage the place where the spring thing mounts. Don't try to move the motor with the plastic fan thing near the pump, you'll just break it, and then you really have problems.
To keep a motor from sticking, thru off season occasionaly spin the pump, just a few seconds will do, don't need water.

check to see that the flow switch is working properly, it may not have enough flow on low speed to allow the heater to turn on. Make sure your filter/s is/are clean. If you have a pressure switch instead of a flow switch, it may need to be adjusted or replaced.

Check for voltage at the pump, before assuming the relays are out... then check for voltage before and after the relay contacts

If the water pump is not circulating water you will want to do a simple procedure called "turning the impeller" You can call 888-997-6366 to be walked through this procedure over the phone.
