bobby,
If the pump does not work when connected to just the spa, then the problem has to between the intake valve and the pump, or the pump itself, or maybe something preventing water from leaving the pump.
The next test I would try is to turn the pump on and then open the spigot right above the pump and see what happens.
Tell me why you decided to clean the filter? Was it just time or did you vacuum up a bunch of leaves?
Have you check the pump's impeller to make sure it is not clogged or broken free from the motor?
Thanks,
Jim R.
