So today I decided to dig out my old Black ring and I havnt used this in a good few months.
Popped a fresh battery and atty on there and went for my first hit and... nothing...
After trying out every possible fix i could think of from taking the magnets out and replacing them with a spring nothing worked...
Eventually I looked carefully at the button itself and where the button actually connects to the mod i noticed that it was covered in a black coating and so i checked the holder for it and it was covered too.
I didnt think much of it but decided to polish it off with some brasso and a lot of elbow greese and immediately afterward i had done so in a final attempt i put it back together and it worked.
Not sure if it is carbon buildup form arching or just corrosion but it worked for me. Will attach pics tomorrow of the region.
