Hi all. I am in a bit of a pinch. ComEd shut off our power to do some line work for about an hour. When it came back on I immediately checked the temp of our spa since it is open in the winter and it had dropped about 20 degrees. I went to the equipment pad and the breakers had tripped for the pumps and filter. I flipped them back and they are not turning on. The primary pump is displaying an alert that the power was out. I am not sure what to do as the power is back on to the pad. The pump for the spa is working fine so water is cycling in freeze protect. Unfortunately it's getting colder without the heater.
Can't get Primary pump and filter back on

in the meantime, what pump do you have ? Any automation ? It makes a huge difference with which buttons need pressing.
*edit. Went through your history and you have intelliflos/intillicenter. Here are several threads about it.

Usually, turning power to the pump off for about 5 minutes will allow the power in the capacitors to drain and the pump to re-boot. Leave it off until the power alert stops flashing, goes out, etc., wait a bit more and re-power the pump.
Thanks for the replies. The solution was to turn off the breakers to both the filter pump and spa pump. Then turn on the filter pump first, wait a few seconds and turn on the secondary spa pump.
