How do I fix a brand new Nerf Modulus Regulator that is not firing?
Our son just got the Regulator for Christmas. We put the batteries in it today and loaded the mag to let him play with it. Well,that didn't go as planned. It revs up like it's going to fire. But when you go to pull the trigger nothing happens. It doesn't matter what selection you are on for firing either. I did look at the belt that helps propell the dart without a mag in it with my finger pushing down the sensor button. The belt does not spin or move. I'm not for sure if it's supposed to unless the trigger is pulled. Just trying to fix this dart gun. Please help
Is this a good question?

My son's Regulator was firing just fine in all 3 modes for about 4 clip changes (12 darts per clip). Then one dart entered the barrel and remained there. Don't know if he released the acceleration button to soon. Anyway, the dart was removed by gently pushing it out with a pencil through the transport belt cover opening but the flywheels won't rev up and also the empty clip light doesn't light up. I even replaced the (new) batteries but without result. No sure if this is related to your question but i could not find a related topic elsewhere. Bart

Make sure the darts are the long ones. I had that issue today and realized maybe the darts we were using were too short and the propeller-like tab on the conveyor belt couldn’t reach it. Sure enough, switched it out and works like a charm!

My stepson just had the issue where the belt was moving but the bullets would not fire. I completely dissembled the gun and found one of the motors that propel the bullets had become dislodged, and simply snapped in back into place. This gun is not an easy one to re-assemble, but I managed in a few hours to get everything working again.

Same happened to me. I stopped using it for 6 months then I picked it up and it started working fine.

Mine has the same problem but I know what the problem is. The drive belt is broken. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement?
