This was my thoughts too. The draining may have swung the arm to the point where its binding on something whereas before it never had been that low to previous bind on whatevers in the way. It it were me I would just pop the top on the pump housing to be sure nothing is binding. You don't necessarily need to take the sump all the way out.
