How to fix electronic eye on the spyder mr3 paintball gun?

I have a spider mr3, I bought it used and the guy told me the eye doesn't work, I've took it apart and I can't figure it out, any suggestions? Also I need to knw where I can buy spare parts for this gun, its missing one of the ball detents.|||You can get detents pretty much anywhere. MR3 uses plain rubber nub detents. Also goes by the term "ball stopper." Should be cheap.





For the eyes, here's some troubleshooting tips:





First make sure the battery is fully charged. Also make sure it's a 9.6v rechargeable, not a standard 9v. Standard 9v is known to not always put out enough juice for certain spyders, namely the ones that come with the rechargeable stock. May need to invest in a new one, but they're not that much, like $10 or less, and last a super long time. A low battery is usually the culprit with anything electronic related.





Make sure the eye connection isn't loose and that the wire(s) isn't damaged. If the wire is damaged, you can actually just splice it if you're handy with that sort of thing. Replacing it is another matter, may have to contact Kingman (Spyder) for that one, or check ebay.





On a side note, consider replacing the feedneck with a clamping one like this: http://www.actionvillage.com/store/Trini鈥?/a>


Saves you from needing the plastic feedneck adaptor.|||You can normally find ball detents that fit that marker on ebay for cheap. As for the eye it could be any number of things, i would recommend just taking it to a pro shop and have them look at it.
