My spa heater(Raypak 406A) isn't turning on and there is no power at the unit. The heater won't even power when in service mode. All other functions seem to be working,. I've taken a voltage meter to the relay and there is no power there, either. Any suggetions?

Is the heater connected to 120V or 240V?

No voltage at the heater connection.
Control Box? If you are referring to the main panel? It has power, yes.

Number two relay (circled) in the picture is not "on" according to the panel unless it is plugged into the number 1 socket. Number 1 relay (far left relay) should always be the pump, even if a VSP is installed. That's where any competent service tech would expect to find it. Its hard to see to which socket on the board the relays are attached.
In "Service" mode, you have to push the "Heater" button to get the heater to light if it has power. If it is powered through a relay that needs to be "on" also. Is the "spa" heater enabled on the indoor panel/phone app? If not, it won't light automatically when you hit "spa" mode. If it is wired to a relay, has that relay been setup as "heater" in the configuration menu? The heater should be on its own breaker and not wired through a relay.
The lights on the far right in the picture only indicate what position the valves are supposed to be in while in "Service" mode. The heater won't light automatically in "Service" mode.
