Unhappy RO/DI unit not working - frustration

I'm hoping somebody can point me in the right direction on fixing my RO/DI system. I purchased a typical 100GPD Ebay unit with storage tank; it was working fine for around 2 months. Now, it produces very little water, even after 24hrs - the 3 gallon holding tank never fills (I maybe get a gallon out of it). If I pull the tube out of the tank, the ro water sloooowly drips from the RO part.

I installed it under the sink, using the self piercing valve. I get about 60 psi going into the unit, however if I messure the water pressure just before it enters the RO membrane, it's barely detectable. I've taken it apart, and the filters, including membrane, all look clean.

Could it be the auto-shutoff valve?

I would think that 60psi would be adequate, if not ideal. Any thoughts on what else to check or any methods to troubleshoot the problem?

Thanks!

Jason
