Intex E90 Error - How To Fix It For Good
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 май 2021
- Just buy a replacement filter pump for $50 from Intex, and keep it around for when your pump fails. And it WILL fail. Why bother with a warranty claim? It could take weeks for them to replace the pump under warranty. From all the reviews I've read, Intex customer support sucks.
If you have a pump in stock, you can replace it in less than 30 minutes - your water won't even have time to get cold.

Was hoping you would show how to change it, not just point at this new pump and tell us repeatedly how much it cost.
This is absolutely the simplest and most correct fix. After realizing the common problem and the easy cost effective solution, I bought two new pumps through INTEX… Payed the same amount in shipping for two of them versus just one… Shocking. Put my new pump in in just a few minutes, and I am right back in business. Trying to do any fix it to these cheap small pumps is a waste of time. The investment is minimal for new pumps, and so is the time it takes to install a new one and be right back in business. This video is the best of all of them!!
simplest fix is to change the filters first
Got ours early , only paid $350. Thanks for the video
Great video and advice. That said, I ran the unit with both filters and the return taken off for 5 minutes (after bubble purging also), changed the 2 filters which were only in for a few weeks and looked pretty good and that solved my problem. The return being removed alone did nothing to help. There was also a little bit of black pudding skin like guck returned into the main tub area that I see from time to time. I am thinking it’s residue from the internal pump area as the filter would def. Catch it from going in. Bottom line is clean water and filters sometimes makes all the difference.
I got that code. Cleaned my filters. Only put filter back on intake. But...let it run a minute without filters because air was in the pump. Running fine since for $0.
I have the same spa, the customer service was quick! I love my spa!
Many times when air stuck in the pump will come up with E90. You can power it off then power it back on. Now push the filter button (pump on) then push it again (pump off) in 2 seconds. Repeat it until no bubbles are pushed out.
Thank you so much! This helped solve my E90 problem!
Omg this worked! And I didn’t have to spend 50 quid like this numpty in the video is telling us to do. Thanks!
Problem solve! Much thank you!
Thnx. Best video on this.
I was also hoping you could show us how to change the pump.
But thank you for your video because I am definitely going to buy extra pumps that way if something goes wrong I can just change it
Definitely right about the worthlessness of warranties...
Very helpful video! My pump got to where it wouldn't restart if it turned off. But, I took it apart and tapping on the motor would get it to start. The shaft and propeller looked great so I lubed the shaft and "spinny" parts with Vasoline and for now it seems to be working normally again. I may need to replace the motor in the future but my tub is only a year old.
Not only are “regular” spas more expensive, but they are HEAVY and hard to move, too!
Had mine for 5-months before pump quit working couple weeks ago with E90 code. Spent $120 on eBay for new pump and I still get E90. What a rip.
Great video good information thx!
In order to replace the pump did you detach the hoses from the base to the spa? It’s only logical, but did you just place the rubber caps to prevent the water from leaking out? Seems like it would start gushing out as soon as you started unscrewing. Also I haven’t seen how to replace the pump on this particular unit, do you just flip it upside down like the other videos? Or can you access it from the top?- I’m sad intex is out of stock of these pumps right now. I can’t find them anywhere.
It should have came with caps... 2 inside caps and 2 outside caps for them holes... Cap it off inside before removing.... Otherwise yes it will all start gushing out. You have to take the filters off first, then caps go on.
This is very helpful
How do you get the case off to get to the pump. I have a pump in hand but either the case is stuck or I am doing it wrong. Removed four screws on the case do I have to disconnect the pipes as well?
Do you have the link or the part number to replace the pump and do you have a video on how to replace the pump?
This is so great! I'm having the same problem. We bought ours new June 2020....now the E90 won't go away! So I just ordered 2 pumps with expedited shipping. Hopefully i get it soon. I'll report back. Thanks again!
Please report back if this solved the E90 code where did you purchase the pumps from Intex?
@@lauriekiddell2667 yes error was fixed and went away. But now I’m having another issue. I think it might be related to the wet and cold.
You have the filter on the outlet, water goes from the bottom and out the top
My tub is 2 years old. The E90 code is a water flow restriction. I always get the code when the filter needs changed. I hit the GFCI reset button to power down the unit, then change the filter and power it back on. Have you tried that? or had the E90 code after the new pump was installed?
At some point the impeller will wear out and then you have to replace the pump.
Exactly, normally you simply replace the paper filter but eventually the pump itself dies. There are 4 screws on the Blue Intex spas that hold the base together. Once they are off the replacement takes 5 minutes. I"m back up and running in less than 20 minutes.
I replace the filter next to the unit itself and it started right away. So happy I did not have to invest in anything else.
"Change the filter on bottom".
Hey berry I go a great solution for heating up your spa when you have drain it and start over with new water or reheat your existing water .? What I do is fill my spa , with water that is heated up to 110* degree water coming from your garden hose and ran thru a propane heater used for taking hot showers when you go camping these little portable units run off of a 5 gallon propane tank and heat the water from your garden hose one past thru snd puts out 90 to 120 degrees water continuously until your spa is full and the is hot and ready to go as soon as its filled up. Cost you no electricity to heat it up and takes about 30 min to be fully heated and ready to go.? Costs you only about 1 gallon of propane.? After that you put the spa back up to its normal location on to the pump. Recommend CoscosX model 8L 41000 btu. Water output up to 113 F 1.58 GPM comes with propane hose And regulator. Purchase on line Amazon Cost &129.95. And the bonus is its portable so yoi can have hot showers if you go camping
I cannot figure out how to take the bottom/housing off! can you help? do i have to disconnect it all? what screws to undo, etc?
Will this fix the air jets? My filter pump works and heat but the air jets do not turn on at all.
I have only had mine for not even 2 months and I have had that e90 error code come up three times already. It did it again last night and this morning I did change my filters and I got the beeping to stop again but I have a feeling it will come back I don't know. I took off the filter and I can feel the suction coming out of there so I know that is working but my filter light will no longer light up not even when I press it? Do you know what is going on there
Dirty filters will give the same error code, I changed mine and it works fine now
I am not getting an E90 error, but the pump stops working after a few minutes. Could this be the same problem?
Hi thank you so much for the info. I get the E90 code everyday when I turn the filter on. The filter is dirty so after I put a new one in, it works fine. Do you think I need a new filter pump. My spa is 1 year old?
No the filter is the first thing to check. If that doesn't work in the future, the pump might be the issue. But for now it sounds like you're good.
What's the link for the pump for spa pure plus motor? Please and thank you 😊 🙏
I found what part number it is and of course they are out of stock at Intex. Anybody know where else you can get these?
do you have a part number for the pump motor? thank you
I literally just got my Intex hot tub not even two days ago and it’s been working perfectly and tonight I got out and I put the top back on it I fastened it down and out of nowhere the E 90 code popped up so I turned off the hot tub and I unplugged it I waited a second and I plugged it back in and I turned it back on and I turned the heat back on and it seemed to work because I waited a little while and it did not do the code and I seen that sometimes there can be a clog so when I turned it all back on and it pushed water through I think I got the clog I hope that’s what it is because I haven’t even had it for like three days
My issue is that pieces of the coating in the pipes/lines (black material) is chunking off and I think that's clogged my pump. I'm worried that even if I replace the pump I will still have that issue.
I'm looking at the E90 code and it is saying I need the shafts for the pump.Intex Pure Spa Hot Tub pool Pump Shaft E90 Error Fix
Please tell me if that will work or I need a whole new pump?
Why would I get this after only using this for a month and even then it's only used on weekends? Seems odd to replace a pump after 1 month use
Is there a link to purchase this pump?
Do you have the link for the pump
Where do i buy a replacement pump?
Hey guys. I bought one today second hand and had the code. Watched alot of videos and decided I'd fix it myself. I'm not an electrician or anything like that. But basically I took the pump off from the bottom. Took the top section off the pump. And where the propeller is on the pump there is a little rod going through it. I'm assuming plastic. Anyways that was broken! So I found a nail that was the same diameter. Snipped the ends off and made it the same length as the broken plastic one. And I've had no issue with it. Litterally took me an hour.
The rod going through the propeller is to keep it center. The plastic one had snapped causing the propeller to wobble causing it to stop. Hope this helps
The nail will rust. You need to replace it with a ceramic, stainless, titanium or other non ferrous metal.
On mine it only took unscrewing the water flow system and putting it back on.
i have the same problem. i pulled the pump fan out of the magnetic field and cleaned it up i also used a paper towel(dry) and cleaned the inside of the magnetic field. its working but i am still ordering a new pump
Can you provide the link for the pump
Mine just shuts off with no code, like if someone pushed the power button, still shows temperature but everything else off...any suggestions???
Same problem I have. Just beeps once and shuts off. No error code.
I just replaced my filters with new ones then reset it all fixed
Filter should be on the bottom pipe not on the top he is filtering water afterit been through the pump so all the muck gets into the pump
I’m a machinist so I made a shaft out of true 316 stainless and solved the problem forever 🤷
Got the pump, replace filters. Things suck… idk what to do now
Whered u get your pump. They arent selling any anywhere. 28427E SB 10M
Replaced the pump and still have an E90 code. So it’s not a bulletproof fix. I think it may be the control board now. Sucks that it lasts only 2 years. Also their tech support sucks and is useless.
actually if you keep geting E90 error constantly, and there is no water flow, in 99,9% sure your pump break, and if you are out of varranty, you just open your pump and replace shaft of propeller, which will be broken for sure, you need use some non magnetical material, like brass, or fiberglass, or you can buy buy whole replacement for just propeller with shaft, you dont need buy whole new pump, after you replace that with brass piece, you should be fine for some 2 years, all intex hot tubes have this problems with shafts, even intex admits thats their own design flaws, but still keep happily sell you new pumps
in the video he said he tried that and it didn't work and that the pump is cheaply made so you can also easily break it as you fix the rod. the whole point of the video is to just bypass the cheap, complex fix (that you're referring to that might not even work), with an easier more expensive fix that is foolproof.
@@wadevid well, his solution is buy two new pumps, its 100usd per piece for me, instead replaced broken shaft is literaly 0 for me, you can buy 2 feet brass rod for maybe 20usd anh you have material for repair shaft for rest of you life, my spa cost about 500usd in sale, buying new pump for 100 every year is fuc stupid
I replaced my shaft and still nothing...not get a sound out of it when I turn it on
Where’s the link
Hi, is that compatible with a 220v?
No
Had a new pump installed already...only lasted two months.
Ive had this spa for three days and I got the E90 error tonight. UGH!
The filters plug very fast on these spas....
And they are hard to find the filters... I used to buy them at Walmart, but they don't sell them but online. So now I order them on good ol Amazon....
Your sounds just like a dirty filter.
Ya can buy a full setup for 100 quid
Respectfully that is not a permanent fix that's you fixing it over and over. I literally just change my filters I've had mine for 3 years and every single time I change my filters that code goes away that's what the e90 code is hey you need to change your filters. But I could see still that if your pumps not working that you're going to get that code and I may eventually have to change my pump but literally I've had it 3 years my pump hasn't went out.
I had mine less than a year and I did call them from Alberta Canada all the way to California and they had every excuse why they wouldn't replace my pump under warranty ...they suck and I will never buy another Intex product ever again junk
Where can you buy a pump ??

@@GlazerKennedyCopy Thank you you saved us a lot of work. I had seen your video a month ago and just left the spa sitting. Got my wife to order the part, when it arrived just really 10 minutes to replace the part and the spa was running and ready to do.
@@soccerpadre11 awesome glad it worked out :)
Thanks this video helped out a bunch!! Just ordered another pump.
Can someone link the pump for the 6 person octagonal pump? Site asks for size of spa but no options to pick the 6 person
what's the ink to the pump? Cn't find it on amazon
They stopped carrying for now.
Yeah, but i keep getting the E90 error code three times and I've only had the hot tub for about 5 days
Just bought mine & code.. did you fix yours?
@@andreabush4553 we had a work around that seemed to work, only using one filter at the intake. We only kept the thing for the summer though.
Wrong out is the top bottom in...
Probably why his pumps go bad, filtering after the pump rather than before, so the pump gets full of hair and other garbage.
I paid 500+tax
I got e90 and the spa ain't but 2 weeks old yay coleman was better.
It's the filters... Have to replace them all the time... They get clogged with stuff.
@@Bridget82267 yep replaced the filter with the other one and it's back running strong. I ordered the blue foam filters gonna give them a try because these white paper ones don't rinse off easy at all
Right... I ordered some of them foam ones also. They tend to fall apart fast also.... I wish they would come up with a washable one.
Oh but that would save the consumers money... Can't do that... We need their money.... lol
@@Bridget82267 the ones I ordered claim to be washable and reusable and not biodegradable hopefully that will be the case will have to let you know I got them on Amazon lol but you right I think they make more money on filters than they do the purchase of the hot tub 😉
You can actually replace the broken rod in the pump for less the $5.
where you get parts so unexpansive?
Ebay
Search Intex e90
in the video he said he tried that and it didn't work and that the pump is cheaply made so you can also easily break it as you fix the rod. the whole point of the video is to just bypass the cheap, complex fix you're referring to (that might not even work), with an easier more expensive fix that is foolproof.
I'm glad that you realized the broken rod in the pump I found several videos showing that's all you need to replace in the pump for a E90 code.
Did it work?
Yeah those are junk. Mine has E90 code the first day. Just don't buy this find different company.
Yeah not 50 dollars anynore
WELL done. Needed this. 🔧🪛
