Ecotech return pump shutting off

Periodically my return pump will stop pumping water and make a clicking sound like it's trying to start back up. I've taken it apart several times and cleaned it. I'm wondering if it's overheating, gunked up with calcium carbonate precipitate, or other. Anyone have any ideas?

I had a problem with the power supply on my M1. It kept making my pump turn on and off.
