im sure this will come as a shock to you all, but believe it or not, my ion has failed one me :eek:

worked fine when i put it away, turn it on the next week it decides it doesnt want to shoot.

it has a t board in and the power button is the button you also use to select the required setting once you have got to the corresponding led colour. The marker turns on fine, so the button must be working, but when i press it again to select the mode it doesnt seem to work and the board stays in the setup process, also the gun decides it doesnt want to turn off :S

probably just going to need a new board

just wondered if this has happened to anybody else or if there is a way to prehaps reset the board, or if i am just been stupid and missing something as i have never really messed around with the settings as i have no idea what i am doing lol.

thanks in advance

With most problems with the ion. They can simply be resolved by changing the battery. Make sure you put a decent battery in though. No value or anything like that

And the button can be very stiff against the board. So it may need to be moved a touch to allow the button on move into both on and off
