Mayday Need Help Please.

Okay this past weekend, while playing at the local indoor, I got shot in the trigger of my gun, while trading out with this guy in the center fifty. I didn't think much about it at first, but then my gun started acting up when I shot it. It was like the micro switch wasn't reading my trigger pulls, and the gun wouldn't fire. I thought there was something wrong in my breech (Like a broken ball or something) cause I got the malifunction LED on my tadao board flashing. But when I opened my breech up, it was clean as a whistle inside. I turned off my gun, and then back on, and still the same problems, but w/o the malifuntion LED. The gun just wouldn't fire. I sat out a game or two to work on my gun, and clean it, and it started to work again. (After I was able to change modes of fire from breakout and unlimited ramping, to unlimited semi 0nly).
Well last night was the first time since the weekend I've gotten to mess with my gun, and now it's doing the samething again. Its just not wanting to fire in any mode, when I pull the trigger, however it is allowing me to go to the changing settings menu fine. I can't figure it out. Is my micro switch damaged from getting shot in the trigger? Or is there sometthing else? Where can I send my board to be inspected/repaired, one of the MT's like Ken Crane, where I bought the board from, or Tadao? Help Please....

Open your grips, and make sure no components are broken off the board. You should still be able to hear the microswitch "click."
Now, pick up a can of compressed air and go to town. Sometimes paint likes to get underneath the components, mainly the microswitch and connectors. I have had that cause a short and make mine act strangely. Once you blow everything out of there, it should be fine.

I'll try some compressed air, like you recommended, but as far as anything broken off, I haven't seen anything that looks out of place. I Currently took the board out of the gun, and replaced it with the stock one. I can't hear the microswitch "Click" which is what makes me think that it is a problem there, but you might be right about some dirt or paint getting in it.

be careful with compressed air. i would remove the board and remove the battery and clean the board with a toothbrush (back and front). if you still have trouble drop me an email at ken@performanceangel.com

Thanks Ken. I did however use a can of compressed air, (The kind for dusting and cleaning electronics) and used a light burst of it on the board, after I had completely removed it from the gun and disconnected everything from it. I also used a toothbrush on it afterwards. Besides that, I throughly cleaned the eyes of any dirt and debris. That seemed to resolved the problem so far. If I do have anymore issues with it, I'll give you a email and let you know. Thanks Again.

I'm having the same problem, but it started right out of the package. I don't know what to do. I just got the board today.

Assuming you are using the newer Angry Tadao board, probably be best to contact Angry Paintball and see what is wrong since they now market the Angel Tadao board. Hope it works out for ya.
