ok ive done the below still no good any ideas
If your pump is blinking red (excluding older non-WWD MP40 pumps), this is likely because the auto-shutoff calibration sequence was entered while the pump was attached to the aquarium. To cancel this calibration, perform the following sequence:

1. Hold mode (pump blinks white)
2. Hold mode and set (pump blinks yellow/white)
3. Cycle power to the pump by un-plugging and re-plugging it in

The pump should start back up and run normally.

There have been issues with the bearing swelling up and causing the pumps to seize, drop Jez a PM, he should be able to help:)
