13.  Using the previously removed hex nut, fasten the 

mounting plate to the wall of the Aqua-Hot.

14.  Carefully reinstall all of the plugs from the DC harness.

•  Ensure that both tabs for all Molex connectors click 

into place indicating a properly seated connection.

•  Ensure that the single tab for the RVC cable clicks 

into place indicating a properly seated connection.

•  Suggested order:

•  8-Pin Molex (bottom of the controller)
•  15-Pin Molex (middle left of the controller)
•  RVC (middle right of the controller)
•  9-Pin Molex (top left of the controller)
•  12-Pin Molex (top right of the controller)
•  3-Pin Molex power connector

NOTE: 

All plugs have only ONE correct orientation. Do 

NOT

 

force the plug into place.

7.  Lean the top of the mounting bracket out from the unit 

wall, and then slide the controller and mounting plate 

upwards and out of the unit.

•  The bottom of the mounting plate has two key-ways 

holding it in place (no nuts or other fasteners)

8.  With the controller and mounting plate out of the unit, 

use a ¼” socket or nut driver to remove the four nuts 

attaching the controller to the bracket. The controller is 

supported by four small bushings - ensure that all four 

bushings remain on the bracket screws.  Remove and 

discard the defective controller. 

9.  Plate new controller onto the mounting plate.

•  Ensure the controller is properly oriented - reference 

Figure 32.

10.  Using the 4 nuts previously removed, fasten the controller 

to the mounting plate.

11.  Insert the controller and mounting plate into the Aqua-

Hot. As you insert the controller and mounting plate 

into the Aqua-Hot, the bottom of the mounting plate 

should slide along the wall with the top of the mounting 

plate leaned away from the wall to ensure the bottom 

catches the key-ways (Figure 30) while the top clears the 

mounting stud.

12. Lean the top of the controller and mounting plate back 

against the wall and ensure that the bottom of the 

mounting plate is seated on the key-ways.
