BK Vertex 1000 pump issue.
I have this pump on my Vertex Alpha 170 and I think it might be on its way out. I noticed it wasn't running in my sump, I assumed something may have lodged the needle wheel. Upon taking it apart, everything seems good. There was no blockage and the pumps bearings seem to be smooth and free. When I try to plug it into the wall out of the tank, its cycles a couple times like it is going to start, but just quits after a couple tries.
Has anyone run into this issue and can anyone help with troubleshooting?

This is the correct replacement block for that skimmer. The website shows we are out of stock but I am pretty certain we actually have one or two left. We also have more due to arrive end of next week. http://royalexclusiv.com/Spare-Parts...-250::123.html
