Ok so i just decided to make a little cash and sell off my stock a4 board and put in a lucky so i could use my Nox DM chip in my a4. Ive got the lucky angel UN1 board running a Nox DM hip chip with a brand new set of WDP red lazer ribbon eyes. When i turned the board on and dry fired without are the eyes faulted and the board gave me the blinking yellow eye fault light as expected. I thought that having paint in the gun would fix this so i went out that weekend and test fired the gun with paint.
The eyes to my dismay still faulted. I checked inside the gun and yes the eyes were turned on, and would even go into the power save mode after a few seconds of inactivity. i wiggled the connection on the board to no avail. I ended up just disabling the eyes for the day which actually didn't give me any problems at all no chops whatsoever. But i really wanna get these eyes working. So i take the gun into my friend who works at our local pb shop and have him test the eye circuit. He tells me that the eyes themselves are working. At this point im thinking that its a faulty board. I go on the pbnation lucky forum section and ask a lucky tech rep what he thinks the problem is. He tells me that i can either send back the board eyes and chip to him to be tested and replaced or i can try to fix it by installing a pair of DM lazer eyes. I guess some people have had the same problem i have had and fixed it by using DM eyes instead of the WDP ones. I had a big open game coming up and didnt want to have to use my backup so i just decided to drop 20bucks on the DM eyes and give them a shot bc they are more durable than ribbons anyway.

O wow that got long i guess im just posting this to see what you guys think i should do if when i get them the gun still wont work.

Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks
Aaron

Try putting the eyes in demo mode and fire the gun 100 shots or so, no paint and w/paint. Then put the gun back in the mode you want. Turn the gun off (do not pull the trigger again before turning off) and then back on, see what happens. See what happens. If the gun shot in demo without paint and would not shoot in demo with paint then your eyes work. It worked for me.
