so during a water change and switching power strips. my ac70 managed to syphon all the water out of the chamber and i didnt relaize it when i plugged it back in to just now when i noticed no water flowing out. is it likely that the motor burned out and its done for? anyone with similar experience? i wanna know if i can fix it or if i jsut gotta go get another one.
ac70 problem

cant be sure... either since yesterday midday when i did water change or this afternnon when i unplugged it.
just unplug it for a bit, then reprime it by filling the chamber back up with water and plug it in.
sometimes if the impeller is a bit gunky, you need to give it a flick with your finger.
unilkely it burnt out. I have some AC's that have been going for over 16 years now.
they are pretty indestructible.

thanx for all the replies... im hearing nothin when i plug it back in. i guess i might as weel upgrade to a ac110. probably not a bad thing except the hit to my wallet. lol.
flick the impeller with your finger or a chopstick while plugged in before you chuck them.
I have had the filter not reprime before during a power outage over a weekend when I was not home and the filter motor, was hot but still ran fine.
double check that it is really fried first.
