Maybe the carto isn't making a connection with your battery. Put something very small (unbent paper clip) and pull the end out on your carto slightly. See if that helps. If not, it might be dead. But it could be the carto not making a connection with your battery.

You could also do the same thing to your battery, pull the center pin out slightly. But you really have to be careful doing this- I'd do it to the carto first.

If you're getting nothing at all it sounds like it's open as swedishfish said. Try the center pin as she suggested and that may get you going. I think 5ml is way too much liquid though. Mine hold around 50 drops or about 2.5ml on initial fill. (depending on the size of the drop). If you get it going a little but it's flooded, you can probably blow it out a little. If you don't get that one going, try another, but put about 6 drops down the center hole from the threaded end, then turn it up and put 6 drops down the center hole from the top. Screw it on the battery and try a four second pull. If you can't get it going, no need of wasting juice. If you have vapor, tilt and drop down the top side until the top is slushy (about 40 drops) and vape. Hope this helps.

Check for leaking too. if you get juice in a manual battery connection it will short and refuse to heat it (or at least it should). If you get juice in the connection of an auto battery, you may damage or kill the battery.

And can we assume you are using them on an appropriate battery - like not trying to use 1.5 ohm dual coils on a slim battery? if the battery is very smart it will refuse, else you could damage it.
