Caldera spa not pulling water thru filter

Caldera spa palatino not pulling water thru filter. When jets are on high the spa is not pulling water thru the filter, jets seem to be working as they should but water doesn't seem to go thru filter. Maybe a air lock keeping it from going thru there?

I am not 100% sure. I am wondering if it has an airlock, when I unscrew the filter screw that holds the filter down a bunch of air is trapped inside that. I think its around a 2007 or so

So I did a test and had filter out and turned spa on. when you turn it on high is when the cup around the filter pulls down and it starts cycling thru there. with the filter out it did that today. my filter doesn't seem that dirty so i washed it out again and it still does the same thing. Guess the best solution is to buy a new filter and see what that does.
