I took my grip apart to shorten my trigger and thought i did i pretty good job and put it all back together correctly, but after playing with it in safe mode, suddenly the screen stopped showing up. so i turned it off and back on and it went through the normal stuff when you turn it on. It lit up blue and showed that the screen worked, then showed MEM 6, and then normally it showes safe and a blue screen until i pull the trigger, but this time all it showed was the outline of the battery and the three timer zones...nothing in them but just the outline? any ideas? HeLP......

It won't get a memory, it's a Ni-MH.

Yea, I hate that, the battery "indicator" doesnt work much at all. If all you see is the battery indicator outline, ya need a chaarge.

I've made this mistake. Did you turn the marker on when you charged it. It doesn't charge when it's off even though the screen say's it is.

nope, the gun was off, it came on and flashed between "semi" and my id number...

its not charging right. Turn it on, then go to live, then plug in the charger and then safe again.

no you dont understand....i cant go to live....when i turn it on it never gets to safe...i turn it on and get the full screen lit up where everything is dark...then it goes to MEM6....then instead of safe coming up i get the outline of the battery and the outline of the timer boxes....i cant get to live because i have no menu....it doesnt say anything...no semi...nothing.

Yah, that meens your out of batteries...lol, make sure its on while your charging it, and its says its charging on the LCD...If that still doesnt work then you gotta grab a new battery, you might have pinched one of the battery wires putting your frame back on, thatl fry your battery...happend to me once

Hey....i charged it and it seemed like it was working until i realized it was locked...i bought the gun used and dont know the PIN number to unlock it...doesn anyone know the factory default to override the PIN number lock?

Defaul pin is all zeros. Read this for proper PIN unlocking.

i figured out what was wrong....first the battery was dead, but also my pull was too short and it was already registering a trigger pull when i turned it on....thanks for all the help anyways guys.

according to the manual you cannot unlock it you must do the factory reset, hold down both buttons inside for 5 sec

Factory reset wont reset the pin. And he already fixed the problem it wasnt the PIN he was seeing it was his serial number from a too short trigger pull.
