Blue Pearl dead, need advice on new cleaner or a fix.

Contact the manufacturer's tech support. Blue Pearl is an economical sibling to the Blue Diamond and they have EXCELLENT customer support, whether the BP is in or out of warranty. That's the place to start.

Thanks, but since I bought the Blue Pearl when they first came out it is had a good life at this point and to put several hundred dollars into it would likely be throwing good money after bad. I ordered a Dolphin Primal X3 which should be here on Tuesday. It just seemed to make more sense to spend six hundred and get a two year warranty than to dump a minimum of $250 into the old unit. That would be the cost for the power unit, if it was the motor or pump we are talking $400 plus. Further, I would need a new filter bag shortly which is about $50. Thanks.

Well, good luck with the new one. I don't know that model Dolphin at all.

Well my Dolphin Primal X3 arrived a few hours ago. Glad to have it as the Pearl has been dead a while and the pool had lots of crap in it. Threw it in the pool and turned it on and it went right to work. Its been running for about 90 minutes and has just about cleaned everything up, no clue how long it goes for in a complete cycle. If anyone cares to watch it do its thing I took my iPhone and videoed it for about four minutes:
