: Ouch! Well funnier marshmallow has happened! OK, take the grip cover off unplug the battery, Check the wire to see if its pinched, if so, skip the following directions.

WARNING - This is a STATIC SENSATIVE area of the marker. You've gotta be careful and if it breaks more, it ain't my fault!

NOW! After doing so, make sure there is no paint or water on the board. I've found that paint and water don't make integrated circuts happy. Take off the LCD panel. If the back of the marker is facing you, there is a clear clip on the left hand side of the LCD pannel, CAREFULLY move it out of the way and pull up from the right side of the pannel carefully and it should come off. What your doing is simple, airing out the circut board. After a nights rest, gently align the LCD board back onto the main logic board and seat the LCD board into the clear clip making sure its snapped in there AND that the connections from the main logic board and the LCD are lined up properly. Gently push back in the power cable and w/o putting the grips on see if it powers back up normally.

My guess is you've fried the power regulator like everybody else who has owned a 99 - 2001! So not to worry, after you've tried this and it does not work, take it to a REAL ANGEL REPAIR SHOP not the 7/11 shop down the street! They should be able to repair the board. It has to be an authorized repair center for it to be covered under warranty. Sometimes its covered, sometimes its not! Good LUCK!

: By the way,
: You'd be much batter off just having WDP or Warped Sportz fixing the wire for you if you pinched it.

:
: : Open the grip back up and make sure your battery is still properly plugged into the board.
: : Also, if you have a volt-meter see if you can read any current from the battery. If not, it could be that you pinched a battery wire, breaking the conductors inside.

: : See you on the field,

: : : My 2000 LCD is having some troubles. The other night I took the grip frame off and adjusted the trigger. I put it back on and started firing it, then it just shut off and it won't come back on. Before it died it showed it had about 3/4 battery. When I put it on the charger the screen lights up and gives me the "cab in" message (i don't know what the message says, I've never been able to read it.) And it continues to say it, even when the tabs out and it should be charging.
: : : It seems to me like it would have to be the switch or the wiring somewhere since it's acting like it's not realizing it should be on, but I've always shot a 'Cocker so I don't know... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
