I have a complete vectra M2 that I was going to sell for parts. the issue I was having was it would drop connection to Mobius. Pump would randomly stop/start. I’m not sure if this is a controller issue or a pump issue but you’re more than welcome to it. Let me know.

I hate to say it, but it sounds like a controller issue

That’s what I thought too. Now I run Just saw us go to Sicce return pumps without controllers AC version.
I was lucky I had a new jeboa sitting on the shelf that I picked up a few years ago that was on sale.
I don't trust them for very long, but it will do in a pinch.

I have a M2 that seems to have a problem with the pump. It just powers off after a while and the pump runs really hot, so I suspect that there is a power issue with the pump motor. Plug it back in and everything is fine for a few minutes to hours. If you're interested, I can send you the controller to mess with and see if it will work for you.

Thanks.
I will wait until I hear back from Ecotech. I sent it in for diagnostics.
See what they say or offer.
