Need help with Gen1 Polarstar FCU
« on: November 07, 2013, 10:10:19 AM »
Hey guys recently got a Gen1 Fusion Engine and as well all know the Gen1 had trouble with the FCU wiring. The purple wire on my FCU broke and is now to short to reach into the FCU. I was looking to see if someone could try and fix it for me. Not sure if the wire can be extended or replaced with a new one. If you know how to work on polarstars if you could hit me up that would be great. Thanks ahead of time!

Have you checked with nukeduster here on the forum, I suspect he might be of help...

I had the same problem and what I did was purchased the fcu upgrade kit, it basically replaces the fcu, wires, and trigger board with gen 2 parts so instead of the strenuous steps to remove the fcu, it is just a plug. amped airsoft has them for 100$ but there out of stock. s9airsoft is a polarstar dealer I just don't remember their price when I asked.

Ya I don't have the 100$ to upgrade unfortuently. Received the engine as part of a trade and came broken and missing the side plate screws so now I'm scrambling to fix it so it's useable.

You can get the whole wiring harness for $15.
