Turned off my Gyre XF-130 today to feed the fish, Turned it back on as usual and it started doing this crazy thing where it's probably on full power for 1 second, pauses for 3 seconds, and then starts again for 1 second. No matter what setting I set it to, no matter what power I try to turn the wheel to. it just does this.

I took the pump apart to see if anything happened, and everything looked fine. I kept the controller off for an hour, then tried it again, still totally doing this crazy thing.

My only idea is that the controller just went bad all of a sudden.

Has this happened to anyone else?

I sent in a support ticket, but wanted to see what the community has seen or heard.
