Wobbly 510 Plate

[NouranKM]

Hey guys,

So I dropped my smok G-Priv a few days ago and now the 510 plate is kinda sticking out. It works fine for a while then it gives me "OHMS too high" and I cant vape. It has been like that now for 24 hours.
I managed t get it to work by unscrewing the tank a bit, took a few puffs, now it gives me either "Atomizer shortened" Or "OHMS too low".. please help!

Is there anyway to fix it or do I need a new mod?

If it were me, I'd be dismantling the mod to see if it could be put back.

BFH and if that doesn't work, as mentioned by @Ben85 , take it to bits.

cheers

Welcome to ECF!

I agree with the other posters. It might be that one of the wires broke loose from the 510 or the board inside is damaged.

The only way to know is to take it apart. Maybe a vape shop will do it but they'll probably charge more than it's worth.

I found a video that shows the internals (about halfway through). It looks like a fairly complicated process.

Hi, and welcome to ECF!
Either a connector/wire came loose, or the 510 became dislodged and isn't properly grounded anymore. This can be a dangerous situation. I would bring it to a local shop and see if maybe someone can take a look at it for you, unless you are a little technically inclined and want to disassemble it yourself. I, personally, wouldn't keep using it until then.
