i have a joye standard resistance atty that up and quit on me a week or so ago. i was getting the "OP" (open current) error message on my provari from it.
its been around quite some time, so i put it to the side. a friend picked it up later on and before i could tell him it was a dead atty, he was blowing out vapor! very strange.
so i put the atty back in rotation. it was working fine. i had it set up with a 510-510 connector and a drip shield. i filled it generously and then poof it stops working again. i thought maybe it needed a cleaning.
so i clean it out with my atty syringe cleaning kit using my normal cleaning routine: hot water, then vodka. after cleaning i pop it on the provari for a dry burn. it fires up just fine and i think ive got my atty back. i re-assemble it on the connector with drip shield and to my dismay, its back to OP error message. just for giggles, i try it without the connector, and it fires up just fine.
i try the connector with another known working atty, and it works fine. so- the atty works on its own, but not with a working connector. i cannot for the life of me figure out whats going on here.
help?
