Halei V60 Air Pump - low to almost no pressure
I've had a Halei V60 air pump running two 20cm ceramic air stones on the bottom of my pond. It used to run those very well, so much so that I needed to allow excess air to be diverted off to some air balls in a second part of the pond.
But the pump has been throwing out less and less air over recent weeks whereby its now only running one ceramic stone and even that just about has a pathetic bubble or three coming out of it.
I've tried another air pump on it that is otherwise providing air to my bio chamber and the ceramic stone goes mad with air so not the stone or the air line.
Would this suggest the air pump is finished or can they be taken apart and something done? I've read about diaphragms but not sure if they are applicable to this model of pump.
Any advice?

I replaced the diaphragms for exactly the same model a couple of months ago.
About £20 from Coastal Koi.

No instructions came with the items but I did a google search and I did find a video which helped.
It can be a bit fiddly but you can photograph each item you remove so when it comes to putting them back together you have a reference.
