Aquamax 1.5 hob issue

[dvgyfresh]

Having an issue with my skimmer currently , I just cleaned it and now it seems to not be working properly , the issue is the bubbles aren’t being produced under the collection cup rather just exiting out , the water level in the skimmer is very high as well , what do I do lol

try unplugging and restating holding thumb over air intake when restarting,
hope that work, if not .
take back apart check pump again, esp venturi inlet .
pipe cleaner may have debris lodged in.
good luck
