Billet Box Clone dead control board

[adjam1972]

Hi all

Hoping someone may be able to help me out.

I have a Billet Box clone that stopped working, i was pretty sure it was the fire button as it was no longer clicking. So i bought a new momentary switch, de-soldered the old switch and soldered on the new one. Put it all back together and hey presto it worked... for about 2 minutes. Now its dead as a door nail again and won't fire.

The BB clone boards do not look very complicated at all but as i have zero electronics know how i'm hoping someone with a bit more knowledge than myself can help.

Am more then happy to cover costs and time involved if someone thinks they would be able to fix it.

Cheers
Adjam

@Tubbyengineer forgot to ask you about this yesterday mate. Any ideas?

Without seeing it it sounds like it's pulling too much current through the switch and it's burnt the new one out - could be the board is dodgy or it might just be that you need a beefier switch...
