Smart Parts Vibe Not Shooting.

Crunchygoblin · 07-24-2012, 09:03 PM

I have look through other peoples threads but couldn't find anything that sounded like my problem. My apologies if there is an existing thread already out there and I missed it.

So, my problem is the marker wont shoot. It was working fine a few days then just stopped. At first it was only beeping when I pulled the trigger, so I changed the battery, and that sorta fixed it. Now when I pulled the trigger there's only a little release of CO2 from inside the marker. I opened it up to take a look, and the little poof of gas is coming from the top of the solenoid, that's it.

Any idea what's wrong and how to fix it??

first as usual.. switch the battery to a BRAND name, duracell or energizer

make sure your board is setup into co2 mode

what kind of vibe is this? Is this one of them with an adjustable Dwell because that could be there problem

I've got a Duracell battery in, set the marker to CO2, and I cant change the Dwell. Still having same problem.

does you vibe only have a semi-auto shooting mode? if so you can change the dwell

check the solenoind and the microline in the grip frame, make sure its all tight and clean

when you gas it up you dont hear any leaks?

hey guys i have a similar problem as well my gun has a new duracell in though when i plug in my hpa and turn on my marker when i press the trigger to shoot it lags i hear a small burst of air but not enough to fire just a small amount and when i press it again it fires. this is rediculous for my gun as it was working fine then all of a sudden problems with the board. i have already taken the gun apart and threw in some plumbing tape to all the screws on the inside so there were no leaks and it was again working fine until last weekend when i was on the field and near the end of the day this started my buddy told me to tug on the macro line and that fixed it for a couple minutes and then back to it again i cant figure out what to do anyone have any answers?

IF you guys are willing to, open up the solenoid and try flipping the armature, or the disc looking thing. The side facing the exhaust hole maybe damaged.

If that doesn't fix it, it could be the board itself. I've seen it a couple times...
