So I set up my 2nd mp40wes after it had not been used for a few months.

AFter I put it back in the tank and turned it on it was flashing a green light on the nob and barley moving any water. It wont respond to anything other then to go into feed mode.   I tried doing re-calibration but that wouldn't work and I couldn't get past the feed mode step.

Any ideas whats wrong and how to fix it?

Indefinite hiatus from sw aquariums.

Once I have my glorious return I'll set back up the following.
50 Gallon rimless cube.
180 Gallons mixed reef paradise

Reset it how you would when you set up a master slave relation ship . I think its hold the mode and set button , it will flash reef who're and blue.

I think that means its on battery backup.... maybe your main powers not getting to it? is it on a battery?

That happened to me about a year ago. It was a probem with the power supply. Give Ecotech a call, they have excellent customer service.   
 
 They ended up sending me a new power supply but my pump was only about a year old. How long have you had it ?

Nick and Jim combined were right.

Some idiot (me) got the power supplies to the Mp40 and battery backup mixed up.....

All fixed now.
