Pool pump issues

Page 1 of 1
Recently, over the past week, I have noticed the pool is struggling to maintain pressure when pumping and circulating the water.
Today for example, I will have the pump on 2200rpm and pumps the water well. But when I carefully open the bleeding valve on the top of the cartridge filter, the pressure dramatically drops to the point that it stops drawing water.
Cartridge is new (4 months) and clean.

There are no leaks.

I have tried different speeds but no luck.

Any suggestions. Help.

I have topped up the water and it's 3/4 of the drain input.


Basket clear.
