THere is a filter in the yellow tank sound block.Then check inside the bottom ( the black part) the pipe comes of the tank its a black pipe and then the valve tap if it is opening by taking it apart.at red tapand handleand looking through.

Check the pipe going from the outlet of the tank to the pump, its made of plastic tubing, sometimes it can kink and stop the water. To access it you need to remove the 6 screws that hold the base to the tank. HTH.

i had an airlock, wcw said it was not possible.

all i did was take off black base

undo black pipe from from yellow body feed pipe.

switch pump on off few times

then reconnected was fine after that.

now got prob with charger, 6-8 week wait :o :o

ps when fixed my freedom trolley will replace pump feed pipe with longer microbore hose, so dosen't have kink in it that black pipe does.
