Tunze 6105 failed?

I've had 2 tunze 6105 pumps for less than two years and noticed one of pumps was not working. I did some cleaning of the pump and let it sit in vinegar for a couple hours. I connected the pump and it worked for less than two minutes before stopping (the other pump is still working fine). I tried to clean the pump a second time with vinegar, and has same result; pump worked for two minutes then shut down.

I've emailed tunze directly with no response. Any suggestion would be appreciated

How often do you clean them and so you dissemble them when cleaning?

There is a sticky on how to disassemble and clean their impellers on the tunze forum. Did you have them on a wave maker?
