E-Mag Problems :*(

[Chojin Man]

The sear won't reset. When I hook the air up you can hear the sear click, but when I press the trigger the gun doesn't fire and the sear won't reset. Unless I unhook and then re-attach the air. I swaped the E-mag valve over to my mech setup, and it works fine. So I figure the problem lies somewhere in the solenoid, board or sear. Help me please!

Also if you know of anyone that I can send it into to get it back up and running by the 13th of June, that would be sweet. Hopefully someone in the Dallas/Fort Worth area... I have a tourney that day and really really need it to be working by then.

Thanks in advance for your help AO!

my brother had the same problem on his i think alls he did was tighten a screw on the frame by the trigger and wit worked fine

[captain stabbin]

hey, im having the EXACT same problem as you- Does your E mag work in hybrid and mechanical modes though- My E mag has the same problem in E mode, but works flawlessly in hybrid mode and mechanical mode. I'm gathering some cash to send my gun out to Tunaman for a Tuna-up; hopefully he can fix it if i can't get it workin right.

[Chojin Man]

No it won't even work in Mechanical mode its so weird. It's probably something dumb like a loose screw somewhere, but I have tried everything that I know of and I can't get it to work.

[captain stabbin]

hmm- wow, ya i dont have an allen key to go through the hole in the trigger frame so i can tighten the main screw that holds the body down right in front of the trigger- so its kinda loose... i know i can tighten it more, i hope ha, so with any luck thats my problem.

[logamus]

i have to admit, it was the darndest thing i have seen involving a mag.

[nightmareS]

Dude send it to Havoc. He's the man. Tunaman could hook you up too

all of that and then some was done saturday about 78 times. :)

Ya I'm going to send it to Havoc tomorrow. Like I said the valve works fine on my other mech. setup(SS body, carbon fiber grip frame), but doesn't fire on the e-mag frame. I'm not really equiped to fix anything that goes wrong with the sear, solenoid, or board so off to Havoc it goes!

[captain stabbin]

hey, let me know what the problem with it is, so i know which parts to purchase- otherwise i will have to send mine to tunaman or Havoc too. havoc's a good guy btw- awsome guy to send stuff too, super fast.

Recieved it Tuesday, Shipped Thursday. :)

The main problem was that his plunger rod was very long(so long that the sear could not release the bolt). Aside from other minor fixes and tweaks It's singing @ +/-2fps over the chrono. He has a sweet Emag.

You get it yet? :)

Just curious, what is a plunger rod? Would it also be known as a on/off pin?

[Chojin Man]

Ya I'm pretty sure that would be the on/off pin. I often had a hard time getting the valve off of the marker b/c the pin would be snagging on the body/rail. It just never really clicked to me what the problem was. Thanks for fixing it Havoc. I haven't had time to test it out yet, but I'm sure it is GREAT!

[Havoc_online]

the plunger rod is what the solenoid pulls down. its in the grip. the on/off pin is in the valve.

[Lessthanusual]

Ahh, I see.

(i know this is a very old thread but i am uping this cuz it is a problem similar to mine)

Does anyone know how to adjust the plunger rod?
