FL stands for Flow. It is a diagnostic code that is indicating that either the the flow/pressure switch has failed, or the pump is not pumping enough water to operate the spa safely.
If it is the pump, you might try to lean out the impeller housing as its common to see a pine needle or other such blockage affecting the pump.
If its the switch, just buy another generic switch and swap it out. It would only take a few minutes.

How can I unscrew the lid of the Maghum Jacuzzi pump... it is too large for a wrench...

2X2 AND A HAMMER, THE RIBS GIVE YOU JUST ENOUGH SPACE TO TAKE THE WOOD EDGE AND SMACK IT, GO FROM ONE SIDE TO THE OTHER, ONE OR TWO HITS EACH TIME.
IT WILL GIVE IN AND LOOSEN .. USE MAGIK LUBE NEXT TIME ON THE THREADS AND O-RING AND YOU WILL NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE AGAIN..

I have a Jacuzzi Z 145 spa. I was constantly getting an FL error. Purchased a new switch, put it on and when I turn the spa on I immediately get a circuit blow. What could be causing this problem?

Its possible your heater has a ground fault. If the old pressure sw was giving the FL code the system would not send power to the heater. Now with the new sw working power is being sent to the heater.

My jacuzzie starts and stops wen it is runing i have a fl code

FL is a flow error, you may not have enough water going over filter housing. Jets are they open?
is your heater fitted with a pressure switch? when on FL locate pressure switch wheel and turn all the way anti clockwise until it stops then slowly wind back until you hear a click reset in control box - you have reset pressure switch.
If you have done this and still show FL or heater is not fitted with pressure switch then your LOW speed on pump maybe faulty (new pump) or heater maybe scaled up with lime scale and reducing water flow through heater - remove scale from heater, flush through and increase ANTI-SCALE

I have a Jacuzzi spa that has a FL on the read out.

the FL code is usually an insufficient flow fault. you may have a dirty filter or a faulty flow switch/sensor.
