ok so i know i bring my mini up a lot on this forum but my mini wont change to different modes, I've tried doing that button thing but when i push the one on the inside nothing happens, then when i turn it on it flashes red, and when i hold the trigger in that led light flashes like 5 different colors then highlights some and you can switch the color but once you hit the outside button it goes back to being red...not to mention its on semi.

Have you checked what your manual says about it? I remember having this kind of problems with other markers, and it has always turned out to be something simple that can be fixed just by reading the manual.

PS Yeez, please use some more comas. I can barely understand what you're trying to say.

ha yeah I'm working on it, usually I use them but, I was in a hurry and i am scared weather or not i use them correctly lol. I have checked the manual, and it says the light usually flashes green and says that, when it flashes red it means the battery is dead but, i have changed the battery like 3 times and its the same story.

The only time I had a board problem I had to have it replaced. the marker didn't even turn on. I had to have the board replaced.
I recommend sending an e-mail to KEE's trobuleshooting website, I bet they can help you. Here's the link:

Paintball Solutions

I sent a message there and recieved a new board in no time, although I'm the first owner; the limited warranty may not aply for second owners.

Here's their tech support website:

ok sweet, ill look into it. i have the manual bookmarked on my computer, and i tried everything and, it seems to not be working, ill go though and double check. also, i kinda thought that, what if the manual version i have, was for a new model? and maybe my mini is like the year or 2 or 3 out of date? ah who knows...

hmm? if i remember correctly, the outside button isn't the button you wanna be pressing. if you open the grip there should be another button near the middle of the board that points off the edge.


also, check to see if your tournament lock is engaged

Mini doesn't have one (if it's the stock board). Because you can't access the programming button without opening the foregrip with tools, it doesn't require one to be tournament legal.

well what the heck, i went on the manual and i reset the board and still nothing happened...

martix_agent

get us a picture of the board you have. It sounds like it may not be the stock board.

by any chance, is your trigger adjusted wrong so that the switch is always being held in? I've had markers turn out to be powering up into programming mode and it freaked me out

sweet, i clicked on the links and it took me to the site but it says that the blinking light means theres no ball in and a green light means their is, so i put my finger in, still red, then i put a paintball in, still red, so i took the marker apart and the eyes were pretty dirty, cleaned them off, and SAME thing!

martix_agent

could be a wiring issue at worst.

maybe you didn't put them back in correctly, or didnt' clean them enough?
