Default TM7 help

first off idk if this is in the right spot or not... the tm7 uses mini tech so...
okay anyways i bought a tm7 off Ichikisu (great guy). it came in good shape and everything, brought it hope to air it up and try it out.

keep in mind im using co2 w/ a remote. theres an on/off to screw into the gun, and a palmers stab (female) at the tank, no liquid is getting in the gun. and dont get on me about co2, its all i had at the time

okay so anyways... aired up only a little burst w/ the on/off at a time. fired a couple shots and it hissed real loud after the shot. soo i thought it was bc the pressure was low, i adjusted the reg to allow a lil more. (i was taking my time, didnt wanna break anything). i try it again letting a quick burst in the line and it overprssureized. it was leaking, so i took it apart and went lookin for the noid... "fixed" my issue and it was holding air again. put it back together, adjusted the reg some and it over pressureized, again.
took it apart again, fixed the noid, put it together and now it wont turn on, it holds air, but wont turn on. wires are fine, battery is new... wth

soo anybody wanna offer up some advice on my overpressuring problem?

NO NO NO!!!

The Mini and all of its types of markers are HPA ONLY!!!

If you don't have a HPA tank, go buy one before using CO2 again.

You said dont get on you but its gotta be said.

Tip 2: The reg should never go above 200. Most users keep their regs at 180 or so.

The Mini and its other marker types operate on LOW pressure so if you have that number set too high, you are causing potentially irreversible damage to the marker.

Before you do anything else with the marker, read the manual.

If you don't have it, here ya go. http://www.paintballsolutions.com/pd...M_7_manual.pdf

Overpressurising shouldnt do anything about it turning on or not.

Is the safety on when you try to turn it on? If not, theres your problem.

Check the battery is in correctly. ++ --

Ensure that the battery is new. Even if you think it is, try another one. Never know.

Good luck and let us know what happens.

Straight from the manual.
If you have tried several different batteries, check to make
sure the battery harness is plugged in to the board properly.
If it is, unplug the battery from the harness for 5 minutes,
then plug back in and try again

1. The TM7/Mini/TM15 run on HPA only.
2. What pressure does the gauge read on the on marker regulator?
3. Detail the current issues clearly so we can attempt to help.

You're still having that problem mate? Jeez. I told ya not to use CO2. Man this hurts. It was working when I tested it before I shipped it off to you mate. I was using HPA and reg was set to 150psi. Took several shots to ensure nothing was wrong with the item before I shipped it. Once I had confirmed it was in good working condition, I packed it up right away after that taking great care that it stayed in the same condition when I shipped it.

I'd have to say DJHoot may have the best solution for you by calling KEE.

If I recall correctly, CO2 seems to have an adverse effect on mini internals, especially the o-rings. If you get a chance to use HPA, you may want to do that mate. I have never used CO2 on a TM7 knowing that it couldn't use it as per manual.

Check that the capacitor on the reg (black tube that goes up to the mini internals from the reg) isn't damaged or is broken off. That capacitor allows power to flow freely into the boards internals and store enough power to keep the board from being starved of energy. It also helps retain the programming when changing batteries.

Hope this helps out mate. I will assist you as much as I can until that marker works again for you.

Also, if you could answer Kanuck's question, it'll help these guys help you out more.

If you haven't, try reading through the manual in the troubleshooting section to see if any of the suggestions might help you, specific to your situation. You may find the solution if you read through the manual. There may be something you may not have been aware of and the manual shows you what you may have missed. It helped out when I had a few troubles with the TM7 and it was the dang batteries I was using. LOL

Keep us posted mate. I don't want to leave you hanging with a non-working marker.
