E-grip troubles

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I'm having trouble when I try to use any of the modes other then semi. An example of my problem is when I try to use full-automatic. Now, it is set correctly and the first shot will fire and the second and the third now when I hold the trigger down to finally activate the full-automatic the solenoid begins firing but it doesn't seem to release the bolt. I had a similar problem with it before and sent it in to tippmann and when I got it back the same problem occurs. Now I tried to unplug to battery for awhile to let the capacitor reset itself (I heard that works), but nothing, now I thinking maybe I need to adjust my dwell or something but the weirdest part is that even when the solenoid is firing in full-auto mode and the bolt is cocked back it still doesn't fire. It like it doesn't have enough power to release the bolt. I'm going to be calling tippmann but other input would be appreciated.

Thanks

	It's odd that it doesn't burp and then uncock. Try a new battery?

	Question 1) have you modified the sear spring in ANY way, never play with your sear spring. next, try a new battery.
