Fluval Edge Filter Stopped Working..!

[xamy_valox]

Hi, I have just turned my Fluval Edge filter off to do a water change and when I went to turn it back on again, it has apparently stopped working?
It's as if there is no power going to it, but I don't know how to check this without disturbing everything.
Has anyone else had this problem and managed to fix it as I dont have a back up filter and am starting to panic!!
Thanks, Amy.

can you get the impellor out? im not quite sure where it is in the Edge, but that is teh most common reason for the filter not coming back on, teh impellor gets so guncked up it wont turn anymore

Life Saverrrr!!
I was reluctant to mess with the filter as I am still in a cycle and didnt want to get rid of anything that may be beneficial, but after fiddling with the impellor it has started back up again!
Thanks so much, my fishies will be very grateful I'm sure!
