My vape lately has been giving the no atomizer message off and on but would still work. Now it's saying atomizer short and won't work at all. Frustrating as hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've changed the coil, multiple times, I've cleaned out every section of the tank, I've taken a pin to the little grooves between the battery contact and the part that u screw into, whateber the hell that part is called. The receiving end. Everything.... Still screwed. I CANNOT go without vaping and its friggen after midnight here and I've alrdy wasted 3+ hours and gone thru half a bottle of fluid on this bs.

Battery is istick 30w, tank is aspire Atlantis - no model number. PLEASE FRIGGEN HELP ME AND DO MOT SUGGEST CHANGING THE DAMN COIL BECAUSE THAT IS ALL THE REST OD THE INTERNET HAS TO SAY, BESIDE VAGUE INSTRUCTIONS TO "TAKE A POINTY THING AND MOVE THE PIN ON THE BATTERY UP....." WHAT FRIGGEN PIN??????

So frustrated. ANY help is appreciated. Thank u.

first off.... test the battery for a short. See what error code is given without an atty.. if it say no atty etc then your battery is good. if it says short, then the battery ( mod) is bad.
If the mod is good, then the atty should be attached and tested again. if it says short, then the coil is bad ( but unlikely since you have changed it a couple of times)... sometimes when an atty is screwed on too tight it will depress the contact pin down too far and cause an issue...

do you have another atty? if so, try it and see if the same error appears...

seriously consider getting a back up rig for times like this.... or better yet, an upgrade and keep the old one as a back up :)

Yep, first thing:
Remove Tank and Fire Mod
If it reads short, the problem is internal - Hopefully just a stuck center pin.

* A wire is soldered to the Bottom of the Center pin. (+voltage) These can become exposed and often get twisted a bit. When the center pin is depressed to far they can on occasion come into contact with a (-voltage) surface. Instant Short.

Try raising the center pin and Test fire with NO tank attached.
