right done it, Just needa bleedy new battery. All the batteries i have used. are Blue flashing.

Bought a duracell a minute ago. DEAD.


Would a dead battery cause air to go right through the solenoid?

I dunno, markers with low power from batteries do crazy stuff.

A solenoid is an electromagnet with a spring in it. So it only gets power from the battery while it is firing, any other time the spring pushes it back in to the resting position. So even if it wasn't getting enough power it should still reset back after a shot is fired.
