    noid that is wired backwards

    i used the xmod instrutions and have found that my noid is one of the ones that are wired backwards.how do you fix or rewire the thing?can i just flip the two wires that run to the board?i used the compass test if anyone is wondering.

    Yes, just flip them. BUT if you want the clean look and the ability to remove your noid with out un-soldering it; I have the Female Plug and wires set that you can solder onto the noid and connect to the unused noid socket on the top of the main board.

    PM me if your interested...

        bad

        it is a bad idea to keep the wires the wrong way for many reasons.

        1) your noid and sear will be working in reverse....meaning your gun wont fire in E-mode

        2) will damage your noid due to the pluger hitting the bottom of the noid with great power.

        ETC....

            then your wiring is fine and correct.

              the noids can work when their polarity is connected "wrong" ie the wires just need to be swapped. Get a soldering iron.

                HUH. how does the plunger hit the bottom of the noid?

                I am not even sure that is possible.

                1 there is an Eclip

                2 Not 100% positive, but I dont think the gemoetry will allow the plunger to hit the bottom of the noid (assuming the length is correct)

                  that is true. But that is your assuming the E-clip is still in place. I have seen 4 emags running without the E-clip [that have come to me for repairs]. in which 2 of those, the plunger did damage the bottom of the noid due too.


                  you be surprised what kind of problems can happen....even the problems you think could never happen.
