Ive had this hot tub going for a few months already (it was used). replaced the pump and heater and its been awesome.
Last night however, I was cleaning out my yard and I smelled something burning. Couldnt figure out what it was so I kept cleaning.
Then my girlfriend comes out and says "is something burning"?
I grab the cord and its hot and the thick part that surround the prongs is starting to melt a bit.
The funny thing is that Ive always set it to 104, but in the last 2 days i turned it down to 102.
Does anyone know why its doing this? The only thing that I can think of is that I used a "ground" from the Pump to the post (as it should be), but this ground cord came from a 220v Fridge plug. So there are multiple wires making up the ground cord. Originally it came it a thick copper wire, just one big one. Could this be why its burning?
I unplugged it overnight because my infant daughter sleeps about 8" on the other side of that same wall.
Any help would be appreciated.
