Electra Fails again!

[Drummie224]

Ok, it doesnt turn on now. I have the 05 acs electra with rocking trigger frame. One day it decided to die. I talked to my pb shop and they said it was either the board or the on/off switch. Im posotive its not the board. Any ideas?

unless your battery is 100% discharged then it sounds like the board,

if your battery is completely dead and for some reason its not charging you can stick a 9v in just to see if the board turns on.

otherwise. something is wrong with the board.

Take a brand new 9 volt battery & replace it with the one in the frame. Turn on the frame. If it powers up, it was the battery, if not, look for loose or broken wires. Tell us what you find or what happens.

I already tried that.
9v=nothing.
I charged the battery for 30 hours....nothing. maybe there was a static charged the just shorted the board. I dont know.

30 hours, is WAY to long. I want to say 8-14 hours is all that is needed for the 9.6v rechargeables.

Have you looked at the wiring?



Before you spend money at your local shop (kinda feel bad about saying do use your locals) call kingman (1-800-kingman) & talk with someone in the tech. department (ext. 126). You may have to send it in for warrenty work which should only cost shipping to them.

According to spyder the longest the 9.6v battery should be charged is 8 hours. No more, it can cause problems.
