Stops after 30 seconds

Stops after 30 seconds. It starts and runs around in the pool but stops. Nothing appears to be stuck in it and when I check it it does not appear to pick up dirt.

I have the same problem
i held the cleaner out of the water and turned on the power to see what would happen.
the rollers moved but i noticed the impeller wasn't.
I gave the impeller a kick start with my fingers and it started moving.(be careful not to catch your fingers)After I did that the rollers kept moving.
For some reason the impeller motor was stiff.
I had to get the impeller started before i dropped it in the water but it is still working.I am assuming i'm going to have to do this every time.
Give it a try.

sounds like a broken wire, intermittent connection and separation.
