Anyone had any issues with the motor/pump on their Biostyle?
Mine keeps cutting out intermittently. It fist happened a couple of months ago, so I cleaned the whole filter including the motor and impeller, and it worked fine for another month then randomly stopped again. Now it last about a week before stopping.
What is strange is cleaning the impeller and motor gets it going again. When I remove the impeller it’s clearly ‘stuck’ a bit with something stopping it turning, but when I remove it and clean it there is no visible debris (there isn’t really much biofilm after a week even).
I contacted the reseller, and they want me to send the whole thing back to them so they can test and if necessary issue a replacement filter! Marvellous - obviously I can’t be without a filter!
I figured it is just a faulty motor and/or impeller, so I asked the reseller if I could just buy them (can’t be expensive on a £50 filter . . . not currently available for purchase!
So I’ll try contacting Oase directly.
