I bought a used warp off from a person, and there are a few points of concern taht I have. This is my first warp, so I am new to this. How do I check if the warp is functional? It looks as though some one has done the 12v mod to it, as there are two 9v harnesses, though I guess I would have to take it apart to find out. I hooked up one harness to the only 9v I have, and nothing is moving. There is a white push button underneath the board housing, what does it do?

Unless they hard mounted the harness, it should come right out by the single 9v connector. Remove it if you can if not you'll need 2 9v to get it running.
The button primes the system (feeds the balls to the breach of the marker). -
It might also be set to intellifeed. You'd then want to move the jumpers so it activates on vibration sensing.Comment

Upon further review, it is set to sensor. They also just wired up the second harness, so it is running at 18v. Will that destroy the board? I may just take one harness out.Comment

18V will fry the board (that would be two 9-volts wired in series, or + to -, + to -).Originally posted by leloup
If it set up to run two 9-volts in parrallel (+ to +, - to -), it will give you longer battery life and a couple extra bps on the feedrate.

How do I tell if the board is fried?
Edit: Thankfully, it appears they are rigged in parallel, but I can not elicit any response from the warp feed with a battery plugged in.Last edited by leloup; 01-03-2010, 06:39 PM.Comment

Have you tried making it more sensitive by turning the blue stem [forget the actual name of it] inside the board compartment? One direction makes it more sensitive, the other way less sensitive. Tap the casing with your fingertip as you adjust it one way or the other.Comment

if the batterys are hooked up & it won't spin with the White "primer" button you may have a problem , get a meter & start checking voltagesComment

I wondered what that blue cap was for, thanks druid, I will try that. maniacmechanic, what do you recommend I check? Maybe the motor?Comment

Check the wires on the battery connector themselves. On my warp I have had to resolder all 4 points now (each end of both wires).Comment

When I get home, I guess I am going to have to tear the whole thing apart and check every connection. I also opened a paypal case, and will be leaving this person bad feedback (over on mcb).Comment

If you can't get it fixed, send it here and I'll check it out.Comment

Thanks tunaman. I will let you know if I need you help in a few days. I need to run through it myself to see if I can find out what is wrong, and see what the seller can do about it first.Comment

When you do jget to looking at it...just don't "tear into" it...lol.
Take your time, separate shells and pieces SLOWLY. There are gears that need grease, small parts and wires...
Print out the Warp manual found here and use that implicitly: http://www.airgundesignsusa.com/manual.shtmlComment

Right, take it slow. As for grease, does sleek lube/matrix muck work?Comment
