:bashing self in forehead: Egg **** Up

[ruthlessp8ntballer]

Allright, had my egg covered in stickers, forgot one of the screws in the bottom, and pulled the loader apart...the shells were fine, but the recessed pan got snapped in two

I glued it with super-glue...and its holding great (a little cloudy)...now for the problem...I but new batts in there (duracell Ultra) 9v's and Im getting no reponse from the loader...half the time I get a batt low light...and half the time I get no low battery light, and no response from the loader

Have tried more than 6 batts on this one...so its not that.

Someone mentioned that some light may be fooling the sensors...but i fiddled with it in a darkened room, and its the same ole' sh1t.

Help me, or sell me a new loader (egg or better) If selling, PM me only...I only want a way to fix it posted here. If possible of course. Thanks.

checked the eyes for dirt? or even the covers coming off and covering the eyes(little black rubber thingies) Loose connection somewhere?

Id take it out and just make sure the motor spins when you connect up the batts and turn it on.

 

[ruthlessp8ntballer]

no dirt, covers in tact, connections all secure.

No reponse from motor, ever

try bending the battery connectors inwards slightly

 

[ruthlessp8ntballer]

tried that, nothing :gunshot:

sounds like your board is fooked. Order a new board mate thats about the only thing I can recommend.

 

[ruthlessp8ntballer]

may well be my motor... I get the standard red-light blink when i switch it on (just a millisecond) and i get no response from the motor. (have i said this yet lol) Anyone got a z-Board?

What was wrong with the loader in order for you to take it apart?

Just if the Motor/Board were working fine before to took it apart then I'm sure they will be working fine now, unless you've connected the wires up wrong.

Best bet would be to take the Egg apart, make sure all wires are clipped into the board fully and when you put the motor shalf in you make sure its not touching the sides of the shell, since this would slow the motor down giving you the low bat light.

Another thing, does the loader spin when theres not paint in it or does it just not spin at all? If you find without paint its not spining like said above, clean the eyes and make sure they are inline with the feedtube/ball stack, since otherwise the eyes will always think theres paint there because of the anti sunlight stickers

Hope that helps abit

The loader was fine, just wanted to tinker (stupid me )

The wires are clipped fully, but they may be in the wrong way. I'll try that now.

Motor doesnt spin at all. Zero. Nada. Zippo

The eyes are clean, but I'll clean em again

Thanks for the help. I'll post here with more bitching if it doesnt get fixed

Anyone got a manual of the Egg? Like internal pictures?

Thanks guys.

Well now u know not 2 tinker.

If all the wires are clipped in and in the right place, try connecting the battery up with the board motor on there own without using the shells and try passing your finger through where the eyes are if everythings working right then the motor should spin/stop spining, if still no joy, then it is a case of replacing motor/board/eyes even.

As for a manual, you get one with the egg, but if your like most and have thrown it out, then check on there webby...think its www.viewloader.com
