CA M14 Electrical Problem

Feb 10, 2008 2:27am
What are the causes for a broken fuse? What kind of fuse do i need to replace the broken one with for my CA M14?

open up the fuse guard and read what it was on the metal parts of the fuse. I don't think they sell them in singles, but when you buy them it gives you a variety of about 7 for maybe 2$. you could pick it up at almost any hardware store. should be no sweat.

the fuse blew because the gear box was drawing to much power. Something could be broken inside or jamming. Perhaps your motor is burning out. I saw try another fuse, if it doesn't burn out after a while then remove the fuse. You dont really need them I never leave them in my guns.

i lost the original fuse so i took the fuse from my brothers g36c,i think it was 32v and 15amps. Right when i put that in my gun it blew. I put in a 32v 20amp fuse that i found and it worked when i shot on semi auto,but when i switched to full and shot a burst i blew.

wow, I wonder if my CA M15A4 has a fuse, and if so where would it be located

Give them a chance. AEX guys are good techs.

i know im bringing it back on monday. It's just really frustrating for me because everygun i buy never seems to last more than a couple of months. I dont abuse them or anything i guess i just always pick the wrong gun. Maybe i should a MPEG like my brother, his has lasted a year already and hasnt had any problems and mine cant even last longer than a month. :x Im just frustrated!

I understand. My Desert Eagle has a fill valve that does not fit the green gas cans they sell, so at least 50% of the gas is wasted. They said this was normal. I'm going to add a sleeve or flare the end to fix this. That way, the gun will finally fire more than thirty shots on a fill. My Gas Mac11 proves this possible.

Buy a TM next time. Out of the 20 TM AEGs I have bought brand new from AEX over the years not one has failed out of the box.

Well, not "out of the box". I agree.

That I've had better luck buying mail-ordered "MPEG"'s.

i got my gun back a couple of days ago but i finally just shot it like 30min ago. It worked for a while then it stopped shooting. I disconnected the battery to see if it was hot or anything and it wasnt. i plugged the battery back in and pulled the trigger and nothing happend again. I checked the fuse again and it was broken. My gun just does not want to work.
