Habitat - Indoor :: Rena filter ran dry!!! What do i do? Not working $200 wasted

[imetazoa]

So I came home to find that my turtle had kicked one of the tubes loose that connected to the part that sucks in the water. So the filter had been trying to suck in air for who knows how long.

Now it wont work.

What can i do???

I dont know how to fix it buttttt you burned out the motor.

You can probably just but a replacement motor.

Although that is a bit pricey. Try contacting customer service?

Is it still under warranty?

Call Rena up and see what they can do.

Just don't tell them you ran it dry

If there was still water in the canister, it might not have been completely dry. Can you re-prime and see if there are any issues?

When my fluval 404 ran dry and I burnt out the motor I took it too an electronic(tv's, vcr's ect) repair shop. They replaced the motor for $20

Any updates on this? I'm curious.
