today i took the triggerframe and the board off of my Bushmaster bushmaster. then i put it back together and i don't think i did anything different or unhooked anything other than the board. then when i put it back together and put the board back in and hooked up the battery i could turn the gun on but it wouldn't work. when i pulled the trigger the light stayed on and the solenoid never clicked Crying or Very sad

. i didn't even mess w/ the solenoid at all so i don't think that is the problem
i really need help w/ this because i love my bushy Laughing

and want it to work again.

if your light is not blinking, check the microswitch of the trigger, make sure that 2 wires are conected to it...if they are not connected u need to conect them to the switch.....i think that should be your problem, cause i did have that same prob...

Most likely wiring since you took your board out but I would also check to make sure the trigger stop is backed out enough to activate the microswitch.

i know i had that exact same problem.. try takeing the wires off the micro switch, take that rubber toob stuff off of it, hold the bare wire to the prongs.. then push the micro switch button down. if it blinks.. its ur wiring

go to a sote like radio shack and get some heat shrink i believe its called...iots rubber wire casing that goes over the wire and ver the prong, and all u do is it it up and it shrinks onto the prong..thats what im using

yah try to find some wire similar to it, it can be thicker a bit but try to find the same stuff, i would suggest just connecting the wires half assed at first to see if the wire will actually cary the current, and if it does, go and soder them together
