I bet 48214 is your board ID #.
What happens when you plug in a charger?
:notsure:

Make sure your trigger is not overadjusted to where its basically always in the fire position. Also if you couldn't fire then how were you degassing the Angel. The gun keeps a gas charge internally for a long time until you release it by firing the gun. The tank doesn't even need to be attached.

Make sure you put your gun into "live" and have your trigger adjusted properly and not so short, as it seems like it is set improperly and is set to short. loosen up the wheels and make the trigger pull stupid long, then see what happens

ok try this, with the gun degassed, turn gun on, switch to live, and pull the trigger, if u dont hear a small click, then try adjusting the toe of the trigger, try one extreme, then the next (really far in and really far out) and if u still do not hear a click then there may be something wrong with the board or leaf spring... but if u dont hear any click no matter what, then thats the problem

the small click should like its being made by something electrical, (not the humming of the display light)

definitely sounds like the trigger is stuck on fire, I would take the grip off over the board and make sure your leaf spring isnt stuck in. Also if you disassembled your gun and took the trigger out you may have put it back together wrong (I did that, but it is easy to correct)

They are onto something! The trigger adjustment causing a problem is a good point!
Try this:
Take the board out of the grip frame, but leave the battery plugged into it. Make sure the leaf sping isn't malfunctioning. Turn the gun on.
If it boots up OK, then the trigger toe screw is probably adjusted too closely to a firing position. Increase pre-travel in the trigger stroke (front vernier wheel) and back out the toe screw.
If it doesn't boot up, well, then you have a whole nother issue.

So one minute the gun is working 100% flawlessly and the next it's not and you didn't touch a thing? Are you not telling us everything? Perhaps the TOE became loose and moved in on you, that's not uncommon. Have you unplugged any wires, taken anything apart?

yor trigger is still stuck in fire. The PIN that you can enter when you press the green button is to lock your gun and you have to hold the trigger and press the green button. The flashing 5 digit number is your ID number for your gun that alternates with your mode when you pull the trigger, try backing out your TOE more (the allen screw in your trigger) and make sure the trigger is adjusted all the way forward.

your TOE screw (the screw in the trigger itself) is too far in, you've already said that...you need to adjust that out so that you can get off the firing point.

Yep. Emmit is right, as usual. ;)
To adjust it such that you can tell when you've adjusted it enough, turn your gun on and adjust it that way. When your LCD backlight goes off, it's adjusted into a non-firing position.
