Well if one of the wires to the LED fell out, then that would probly explain why it is not turning on :laugh: .

You need to solder the wire back to the LED and reseat the LED.

1. Look at the bottom of your gun. See the 4 screws that hold the tray of the gun to the body? Unscrew them, they take a 7/64 inch allen wrench.

2. Once the tray is removed from the body of the gun, you will be able to see all the wires and stuff inside the gun. Find the wire that fell off the LED.

3. Get some solder and use a match to carefully solder the wire back to the LED. then push the LED back into its holder, and reassemble the gun. Make sure you test it to make sure it works before you reassemble it.

If you want, you can use this opportunity to replace your LED altogether. Go to Radioshack and get a 5mm LED (just about any voltage will do, but IMO the brighter the better). They have all different colors, so get one that matches your gun's color scheme or something. LED's cost about 2 dollars. Buy some solder, it is like $3 a bag. If you dont know anything about soldering, ask the ppl at Radioshack, thats how I learned how to do it. You can use a match to melt the solder as long as you are careful.

Here's a guide for replacing your LED.

Forget about what that guide says about removing your trigger frame and on/off switch, that isnt really required. Just make sure it works before you solder the wires.

BTW, where in Georgia are you? What fields do you usually play at?

When you say into the harness, do you mean the plastic black plug? If so, how do you plug the wire in without soldering?

Thanks

at the end of every wire goin into the black box (12 pin housing) there are metal connectors so that the it will stay inside the housing

[Born_to_Race]

So if you were to take out the metal connectors, slip the wire in there and bend the little tabs to keep the wire in place, would it have a good connection?

I'm asking this because I recently had a wire get pulled out of the 12 pin housing and I did exactly what I just asked you at the beginning of this message. I was just making sure that it would work.

Thanks
