Custom pro electro

[PBman78]

Ok, I just got a Tippmann custom pro yesterday and when I gassed it up and tried the full auto or any other firing mode, it shot once then wouldn't shoot anymore, the solonoid just clicked. Can anyone help me and tell me what's wrong with it?

either fill your tank or recock your marker...idk thats the best i could think of....also dont forget to lube it up....mayb another there isnt enough pressure in the tank to recock it.

all that you'll probably have to do is lube it up.if that doesnt work make sure your tank it filled if it is then try to open the trigger and see if somethin is screwed if there isnt anything or your not experienced enough to do it then take it to a paintball shop and get it fixed.

Did you remember to RTFM before trying to operate said marker?

[PBman78]

Yeah, I did read the manuel, but it wasn't very friendly, it had too many warnings, but it didn't say anything about it not shooting.

[Coenen]

There wasn't a trouble shooting section? That's odd.

This sounds like it should be some kind of simple problem.

[PBman78]

Lol, yeah it was simple, i just had to replace the batteries...

Batteries can do some amazing things for ya.

Fun Anecdote:
I was at the field once and some of the "tourney guys" were having probs with an Impy. They'd gone through just about everything, I suggested a battery change, they said "so and so put new batteries in here earlier." After realizing that so and so wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed and his 'new batteries' may have been picked up off of the ground we tried actual new batteries, problem solved. Amazing how that can work sometimes.
