my husband took it apart today and the impellers were gunked up with black stuff.
he used these pictures that someone else generously posted. ours was slightly different in internal design, but they are helpful regardless.
here is an exploded diagram of the 5903, 04, etc. it will help you see if any parts are missing or broken.

it's working fine now. sucks much better too. what a difference!
guess for the $179 these things avg, they just need annual maintenance. I wouldn't pay someone to do it though.
