Looking for help to diagnose my spa. I can't turn off the jets and would appreciate any and all help. I did do some research and found that the heating element could cause this and to hit the reset button but I haven't been able to find it on the heater if it has one.

See the below - the info I copied off the internet - this is where I found the information about the heater not working properly causing jets to stay on. It also mentions faulty timer and stuck relay on the printed circuit board I'm not sure how to check those things.
Yes.... if the heater has a problem the pump will run to maintain heat. I mentioned that.
You didn't mention whether or not the unit is heating. I assumed it was heating.
I see you're permanently mounted but running on 120v. That means the heater is running at low wattage. It could be 1kw or 1.5kw depending on the model. If you're in a cold zone it may not be enough wattage to keep the water hot.
I had the spa running yesterday and it fried the GFI - so husband replaced it last night and we ran for a short time. I tested the water while it was running and the temperature did increase by 2 degrees.
We live in Naples Florida.

Last night we were looking at the circuit board and just decided to tap on the relays and we think one was stuck open because the jets have now shut off it seems to be running fine. Also we did notice there was some corrosion on the circuit board which we cleaned off with a soft bristle brush any idea what cause this - see photo attached.
Does it look like the capacitor (pale yellow can shaped component) leaked? Your spa is 15+ years old so there is a chance the capacitor leaked it's electrolyte.
I recently purchased a used 2010 Artesian Spa Grand Bahama. Everything is in good working order, but I've been ordering some replacement parts to spruce it up. The control panel overlay has water infiltration and the decal/adhesive is gumming up and peeling. I have the replacement decal and wanted to make sure I apply it correctly.
Underneath the peeling decal is another clear protective layer that is still mostly adhered to the the control panel itself. However, there is some water infiltration underneath this layer as well, which I'm afraid will get worse and cause problems with the new decal (or even the control panel itself). Should I try to peel this up and reapply it with silicone or something or should I leave it alone?
My 2004 Arctic Spa is tripping the GFI when the heater is called for. If I disconnect the heater the pump runs with no issues. I replaced the heater relay that has blown in the past. The resistor by the relay is showing 33.3 Ohms. Any advice?
