confusing ion problem...

[reaper man]

Ok then check the wires from battery that they not got trapped in grip when screwing back and damaged (Very common problem)

If you have a spare Ion handy, it may be worth switching bolts and trying then, to eliminate the bolt as a potential problem. You could be getting a bad case of bolt stick - which is unlikely if it suddenly cut out - but worth checking nonetheless.

you can take mine apart for testing if you so wish.

So did it just stop firing during a game? have you checked the trigger, i had this happen on mine for some reason the trigger would be fine to start off with then the part that strikes the switch on the board would stop hitting the switch must move forward or the trigger moves. Take the grips off and try to fire the marker by manually pulling the switch yourself (i.e. don’t use the trigger!) if that works you will need to look at the trigger.

Hope this helps

Have u tried cleaning out the solinoid? I had the same problem a whle back and some paint had got in it! cleaned it out and it now works no problem!

 

[baby dave]

The trigger was fine and the solenoid was clicking away

but yeah this sunday im going to try and eliminate a few things just so we can get to the bottom of this.

And yeah it just suddenly cut out during a game...

how long you had the ion mate?? and do you have an on/off on for the air??
try another air bottle on it as the pin might not be conacting and opening valve properly. seriously check all the stupid stuff it will not be somethin serious as there isn`t really anythin serious to go wrong with an ion barrin reversin your car over it

Put your finger in the breech and then fire . It's most likely an eye problem. BTW - I was joking about the finger in the breech - but try the board and eyes on their own.

Oh - and strip then clean the solenoid - it's probably got jammed (ignore the clicks).

get in touch with tim_c he seems know the ion inside out and maybe able to help...

there was enough air, all the connections were fine and the solenoid was clicking

We then stripped and cleaned/lubed up and the o-rings looked fine.

can you hear any air bein released when the noid clicks? mine done that before stripped down and the bolt was stuck back. push forward and never had a problem since
