Lost water tub shut down filled water back after fixing leak still will not operate
Yes a flow switch will shutdown your hot tub for self preservation. The reason your hot tub is not starting up could be a number of things. The first thing I would check is if you could have an air lock.
When you refill your hot tub always make sure to release any air in the suction line. You will not be able to prime your pump with an air lock present.
To remove an air lock simply open a union before the pump to release the air.
Here is a link to an article that talks about air locks and a few other ideas and repairs for a hot tub that is not running properly.
Hot Tub Repair 101 What is an E6 or Error 6 Code Mean
Is the board getting power, is the control lighting up?
Do you see any error codes on the top side control?
Improper flow will give you an error code, caused by flow issues or a faulty flow switch. Make sure all gate valves are open and the water can flow freely.
If not then check your Hi Limit sensor. This is the overheat safety sensor if it fails the tub will not function at all.
