its been doing this ever since i installed a double trigger. And theres no internal mods, it only wrks on semi, other then that like Turbo, response, full auto and 3 shot burst. It would shoot a few times, then it just go crazy shooting hecka (auto) fast even after i've let go of the trigger. I would have to hold on the trigger again to stop it, but if i let go of the trigger, it'll do the same thing. i've also tried switching back to the stock trigger too...same problem

Sounds like the board might have a problem then, not the trigger. Did it get wet, or hit by something? Try getting in touch with the manufacturer and see if they will look at it.

Try taking out the entire set-up and using the double trigger with the regular mechanisms. Fire as fast as you can and see if it works ok. Then place the electrics back in and see if it does it again. Maybe something is slipping out of place.

I know on my 98 the E-trigger gave me a new, shorter sear that wouldn't touch the trigger itself. Maybe the wrong sear is in the gun.

Just a few ideas that come to mind.
98 Custom
Cyclone
Double E-Trigger
Polished Internals
Freak kit
X-chamber
CP Drop w/On/Off

mine does it too.  I tried to fix it to no avail.  I just squeeze the trigger again to stop it.
Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your...

i don't think its the board, i've tried firing the trigger while its not attach to the gun...and it dosn't go off firing like crazy. I heard it might be the sear, or rear bolt or something...

I had the same problem, what you need to do is remove the trigger sear from the stock trigger frame and place it in the e-grip or response trigger frame. It is a little bit bigger and will catch the hammer better.

easy fix. ok look closely at your stock trigger that comes with the egrip. now look closely at the double trigger you are trying to install. there is a metal bracket with a spring that is throwing off the egrip. remove the metal bracket and spring (hang onto them incase you decide to remove egrip) and reinstall. bam! problem solved.
