Might be a long shot but I figured I'd post this here. If anybody knows an electronics forum I could post this on please let me know. I have an Intex spa that has been running well for 2 years. At the end of the season last year I remember the spa randomly shutting down every few days and I couldnt diagnose at that point but there were no codes. At the start of this season, within a few minutes of running, the unit just shuts down but does not display a code. A long beep with all the lights illuminating followed by a shutdown. It will shut down if the filter is running solo or if the heatler and filter are running together.
Considering the fact that the unit shuts down with only the filter running, I cancelled out the heating element as being a problem. But once I opened up the unit and after reading numerous threads of black flakes in the hot tub and starting to see that myself, I pulled apart the heater unit and removed all the black paint from the inside.
Taking a look at the circuit board I see two capacitors with some crud on the top so my guess is they went bad. I can solder and I think I can replace these myself but I need some help finding out which ones to buy and where. Can anyone help on that?
The pics show the only writing on the capacitor
