WaterCo Jetvac Stuck in Corner

[mooseau]

Well, after my SLAM dramas, pump death, and pipe leaks, my pool is almost back in tip top shape.

Except for the pool cleaner.

It now gets stuck in a corner. The wheel won't turn when in the corner in the deep end. However, everywhere else, the wheel rotates fine.

Any troubleshooting advice? I'm thinking maybe gears or bearings, or nose too tight, but I have no idea really. Pump seems to have sufficient pressure and nose wheel rotates fine in my hand. Hose doesn't have leaks (those were all fixed).

Perhaps. Or maybe some debris got jammed in there. Odd it is only happening in the deep end though. Is your vacuum port on the deep end as well?

I bought a tune up pack and it explained that gears are the problem. I opened it up and indeed, debris was stopping a gear, and the propeller was broken. Now it's fixed.
