Update on this: it was a huge wad of leaves that somehow got stuck in the valve. Had to drain the pool ultimately to get the repair done. Added some isolation valves so I wont have to drain it in the future for equipment repairs.

Thanks for your reply. When I increase the speed of the pump past minimum it goes dry and empties the filter basket reservoir of water. I need to find a way to prevent my pool from emptying while I service this valve. I've read of people using a big rubber mat for the deep end drain, and a...
