Geo Board Problems

[Shwat]

Bought a Geo not long ago from this site. Fantastic gun, it really is.
Only one real issue though, every so often, Ill try to turn it on, and nothing will happen. Ive taken the board out and checked for any loose wires but I cant seem to find any. Ive tried several different batteries that I have tested on different guns. And there is definately a connection being made between the battery and the board.

Im running a Geo on 1.1 software (Yes, I need to update) Any help would be swell

When switching marker on, cover the feedneck/breech . Light can cause issues on the new Geo/Ego 09 boards , some can be more sensitive than others , and is normally help by covering up the eyes (stopping any light reaching the eyes) when the board is activated.

adding to what nitro said..


The problem you may have is light messing with the opti's so make sure the feedneck is covered and also - if you have the grips open just close them and you should be fine

That would make sense... Only seemed to happen when I used it outside xD
Thanks guys, I tested the theory and it works when I cover the eyes. Thanks

I play at Asylum, and thats indoors

I got another issue though.. the eyes button gets stuck on the frame. The actual "pin" that is supposed to go through a hole in the frame to make contact with the board. If I leave it alone for a few hours, the pin gets out of the hole and sticks to the frame. As a result I have to take the board out to re-adjust it

Anyone else have that issue?
