Hey folks, no idea how to fix this, or even what the problem really is!

I have a Shocktech DM5 with (I think!) a lucky board. Its worked fine since Ive had it, then all of a sudden its screwed,

Basically if I turn it on with Eyes On, pull the trigger, it fires fully auto until nothing is registered by the Eyes (i.e out of paint).

If I turn the Eyes Off and pull the trigger it just fires fully automatic and nothing can stop it short of disconnecting the battery.

Ive tried new batteries, tried resetting the board to standard settings, and just dont know what to do. Any ideas?

Without enough 'movement' in the trigger activation point (activate & release) it can cause it to pick up mechanical bounce which will result in full auto. Is the noid 'single' clicking without air or still going fully auto ?

Played at Wildwoodz about two weeks before- pretty damn muddy if I remember properly, but it had plenty of time to dry out even if it did get wet right?

Even when it is degassed the 'noid clicks away fully auto, and the microswitch is not depressed at all...

Any more ideas? :):)

Have you played around with your trigger at all recently? as above if its set so it needs a slight tickle to fire, it can trigger it into full auto.
