Sprinkler irrigation pump not creating pressure.

Hey guys, So back story bought a house last year. Built in 1976. Has two wells one for drinking water 250 feet down I was told. Irrigation well 25 feet down pump on top. The irrigation pump pumps directly from groundwater to sprinkler system. Last year worked great, turn on and it just worked. This year house panel was replaced (may be where the issues lies) and was able to turn the pump on manually via the sprinkler control panle like last year.

The issue, Pump powers, opening prime cap water was filled to the top. Closed tried again. Nothing at the sprinklers. Tried one of the service boxes where the solenoids for the sprinklers were, manually opened I hear water flow. Ran different zones all over. Nothing.

Hypotheses: Pump took a shit. (Impeller, or something)

Electrician wired 110v instead of 220v (Will get to the bottom of that)

Suction lost in the well stem ( I don't know shit about this)

Any help would be appreciated.

Video of pump on and cap off for reference.

Any advice?
