Attention: To retrofit your spa with the 78159 logo light, you must upgrade the software and control panel to the WR4.05 (79466-BYP remote control) or 1.14D (77433 control panel) or 2.04D (78191 control panel). If you don’t, the logo light will just show a white light. If your spa is older than 2013 you must upgrade your IQ2020 control box to the 76836 Eagle control box.


If your control panel looks like either one of these, you must upgrade the control panel to the 77433 control panel. The 78159 logo light will not function with either of these control panels.
