Battery connector is disconnected or reversed - Connect the connector correctly.

Poor motor connection - Check and repair the motor connections.

Expired motor life - Replace a new motor.

If the motor is running, but no BBs fire from the gun, this can be due to a few issues. First, please check your gun to make sure that the magazine is fully placed in the receiver. If not, load the magazine into receiver and turn the gear wheel. If it still doesn’t work, contact customer service
and ask for assistance.

Another cause for your gun not to shoot BBs when the motor is running is that the gun may have a faulty gear or levers may be broken. If you think that this may be the case with your gun, please contact customer service and ask for assistance.

Another reason for the gun to not function properly in full-auto mode is that there could be a faulty feed of BBs from the magazine causing a jam. Use the cleaning rod to remove jammed BBs.
