I had a similar problem last year. It would just continue to go in right circles. I took the whole thing apart and found a couple hairs in the gearbox. After removing the hairs, I havent had a problem since. Some videos here on how to take them apart. http://www.ehow.com/video_4418121_insta ...

Does it still turn in both directions or does it just go on one direction? Could be something in the gears if its not doing its usual left and right movements. As for the return jet, make sure its pointed down.
