Known problem areas are the pipes getting full of gunk, and the non-return valve failing.
You can take the non-return valve out, and blow through the piping.
As above the other problem can be the jets blocked.

If you pull the pipe off the non-return valve(circular black thing on the bonnet), you can then try the pump and see where your problem is.
