Vaporesso Target 200 510 connection problem

[JuanB]

Mod is almost a year old & been great so far, but lately it doesn't detect some of my RTA's.
3 of my RTA's gives the 'check atomizer' message, but they work 100% when used in my other mod.
Now only 2 RTA's works on this mod, but all work on another mod.
My Arbiter Solo started leaking slightly from the 510 pin for some weird reason, so there was some liquid on the mod 510, but not flooded.
The 510 connector seems to be less 'springy' & not protruding as much.
I've tried pulling the connector out with a tweezer, but doesn't grip enough.
I'm not in a rush to take the mod apart...yet...but obviously something has to be done... Any suggestions?

You will have to open it, sounds like juice is inside the 510 already, it will need a good cleaning

Let me know if you don't come right. You can pop around and I can give it a strip and clean for you.

Sorry boet, get some "Spoek Piss" and give it a few squirts on the 510 when you strip the top off, shouldn't be to hard

Thanks, I really appreciate the offer, but lets see what I can or cannot do first...

Thanks, but sorry, what is this "spoek piss"? I'm guessing Q20?
