Paslode Impulse Framing Nailer won't operate

It is more likely to be the solenoid than the 'mother board'.
Do some tests and you will find out which bit is faulty.

Sounds like you have a bad battery - the charger will do this if your battery is too hot or its defective

are you sure battery was charged ? if so , then battery contacts or circuit board may be broken.. but its probably a spark unit( little black box in handle of tool) that has gone bad. fairly easy to replace , but little expensive (60-80 dollars)

When it stops firing is the little light on the side of the handle green or red? If it is red then the battery is draining down too quickly. Either the fan switch has malfunctioned causing the fan to run all the time (I have seen this before) or you got either a faulty battery or charger.

I would start with the battery contacts to make sure not corroded or bent, if no light still then you would have to take the handle halves apart and see if you have a loose connection at the curcuit board. Let me know and I will guide you thru how to do this.

check the battery contacts in the body of the tool for corrosion or bent or broke, also clean the battery contacts with an eraser

Have you got the safety OFF?

Check the small switch at the top by the fan . It has a small roller on it.This trips the switch for ignition. Lightly bend the arm in a small amout so that when the tool is compressed the switch will be activated

Here's what I found at the Paslode Troubleshooting Site:
Tool will not cycle - fan runs, indicator light
is solid green.

Lockout bracket is stuck in lockout position.
Work-contacting element is bent, or build-up of
debris in track restricts operation.
Follower is not behind fasteners.
Fuel Cell empty.
Spark wire out of spark plug.
Spark plug is dirty.
No spark is generated.
Check lockout.

Remove and inspect lower probe. Clean and
lubricate track with Paslode Impulse® oil.
Repair or replace lower probe as required.
Position follower behind fasteners.
Replace fuel cell.
Remove cap and check spark lead, insert in
spark plug and replace cover.
Clean tool cylinder head and spark plug.

If this doesn't work, I suggest contacting Paslode directly 800-222-6990

Hi,
Sounds like you need a new circut assembly.
Around 40 bucks.
Thanks,
Jeff
