okay... no atomizer when there isnt one... mod is good, atomizer on it gives you a short warning.... the atomizer has a short in it. if you have a new coil, install it... if that still shows a short warning after replacing the coil, there is a serious issue with the atomizer...
I said above that i tried the mid with 3 different atomizers and none worked....

Yes it does give error "no atomizer" if i take it off. How can i fix? Or i cant and ned to buy new one.

if the mod is bad, you should have gotten a short error message... but since you got a no atomizer error, the mod is ok

Ok i said no atomizer only when i take atomizer off. When its on and i press button it says atomizer short, that was to clarify it xD. I have to try with a higher resistance coil, around what resistance should i aim?
Are you sure you are not using a tc coil in wattage mode or have mod in tc with a non tc coil?

its gotten down to the process of elimination.... and there are alot of things to eliminate ;)
Ye ty.its my first vape xd so im not very experienced. Il write the ohm try change mode and try swapping the coil to higher resistance, if that wont help il either take it to a store or just buay a new one xd

Im gonna try and change the mode when i can cause i cant rn.
Your screen should tell you if you are in tc mode or not and the coils should have something stamped on them or have different colored o-rings if tc coils.

May be a good idea to refer to the instruction manual.

The screen will show the resistance, the heads/coils are marked / printed with the resistance & recommended power range.
The kit usually comes with the .3Ω kanthal installed & a .5Ω kanthal spare both to be used in VW, watt/ power mode only.

What battery are you using?
(name brand, any letters & numbers on wrap, color of wrap)
Some malfunctions can be caused by use of an insufficient cell.

Yes i changed the coil but i didnt work. I forgot to say when posting that it goes to 10 seconds but there is no smoke when i put the mod to 10w but when i change it to 75w it doesnt work for 1s
The output to the coil is most likely driven by a largish transistor. They love to fail short. That component may have failed, they are very sensitive to static discharge. Again, it's very difficult to troubleshoot something like this without electronics experience and at least a voltmeter. If you have swapped out any user serviceable component, i.e., coils and batteries, and connections look good...it's the box. If any component internally failed, you're better off just getting a new mod, take it to your vape shop. They usually will swap you out one, they can get credit on their return.
