Hi there, my Vectra M2 return pump suddenly spiked in power usage late last night which has continued into this morning. See attached photo. What would be the cause of this?

Nothing in the tank seems unusual relative to how it usually is, the pump isn’t any louder than usual, nothing is flowing at a different rate, and the pump has been operating on autopilot for about 2.5 months now. What do y’all think?

Did you take it apart to check for anything caught up in there? Give it a good cleaning to see if general gunk just caught up to it?
