Default Euro Reef - RS model

Anyone have a Euro reef skimmer that they are running?
I bought one used and I can’t seem to get it going…

May need to have a disccusion to find out what I am doing wrong.

Thanks

I would check the plugin and cord for bad connections. If that isn't it, I am thinking it is a bad pump.

Is this a new unit, if so, I would get it exchanged under warranty.
