I really don't want to crawl all of the way under the house to the pipes, but I may have to.
If nothing is going into the tank, you have a blockage. Snake, Camera, or hire a pro. That's a job I won't DIY.

Baffle at the inlet forces the solids down. Baffle at the outlet keeps solids out of the field. That will cause very expensive damage.

Newer systems also have a filter at the exit, which is a good idea to retrofit.
