Ego10 Solinoid pops but no bang....

BallisticPB · 09-02-2012, 06:50 PM

Ok so gun was shooting fine last weekend. Go to clean it this week and now it just popping faintly popping. The noid is trying to work but nothing. Last weekend I oiled up my ram quite abit and I noticed that the cords/board had oil on it. Not sure if thats the problem or not.
Things i have done
-new battery, even tried different brands
-thoroughly cleaned the whole gun and oiled including the noid.
-increased the dwell

prob did other stuff don't remember. it seems that the noid isn't getting enough power. Can the oil effect that?

Any suggestions would be great. Thx

You not supposed to oil the noid ...... read the manual on how to clean and lube it

Looks to me like you said including the noid............. you need to clean it and apply grease like it says in the manual

well w/e that's not the reason it isn't working. Anybody have any actual solutions?

this may sound dumb.... did you accidentaly put it on Training???

Invert O.G · 09-03-2012, 09:38 AM

Training mode,didn't put the spool in the noid the right way, hpr to low all things to check

BallisticPB · 09-03-2012, 10:38 AM

Noid is in right and training mode is off. Keep in mind all I did was change the battery before trying to fire it. Before that it was fine. Now when I air it up their is a faint amount of air coming down the barrel. Also I can pull the bolt forward when its aired up....not sure you are suppose to be able to do that right? Its as if its not getting air in the chamber or something.

Try removing the rammer and cap and airing it up. I had one marker I couldn't for the life of me figure out. It ended up being something jammed in the port that operates the rammer.

tried that. I hear air coming through the solinoid....so im guessing thats not it

If air is coming from the noid your probably didn't reassemble it correctly. You may think you did but you should check again and lube it with some grease. There's no point in trying to argue with others who are trying to help you. It won't help you make any progress.

Maybe reset the lpr and hpr to stock.

LPR piston lost the bumper???

p8ntshoota · 09-04-2012, 12:23 PM

Did you put in BOTH LPR springs? If you're missing one...

coon_dog · 09-05-2012, 05:50 PM

I have a similar issue like this on my 06 Nexus Pink Lady.. shot fine for a game last weekend, shut it off to refill pods and get air.. turned it back on, now all it does is barely make a "puff" sound like the noid is trying to cycle.. but doesn't move anything at all.. this happened literally between games.. I havn't had a chance to pull it apart to go all the way through it, I hope its not a bad noid.. bleh..

Yup you would be correct sir. Not sure how or when but the spring was laying in the bottom of my gear bag. Don't even remember taking it apart but ya that was the problem. One of those moments when ya feel like a *******......

i have the same problem on my ego 10, last weekend increasing the dwell fixed it and got it to shoot about 260 fps (dwell at 13). but since the dwell was so high it was eating air. now I tried rebuilding lpr, rammer, hpr, and noid, and now it doesnt even cycle even at a high dwell... Im thinking this has to be a problem with the noid...
help techs?

Invert O.G · 09-08-2012, 07:08 PM

Factory dwell is 12.5 so 13.0 is not high you might have other issues........ the noids are extremely durable I'd go through the manual and make sure everything is cleaned and lubed like p.e says.
