If your jaguar is blinking red every time you try to use your shooter something could be stuck or the jaguar could be broken (electricity not flowing through it correctly due to a problem created by overheating).

On a side note: Could someone please reinforce / verify my explanation of over-current and fault (I am not too experienced with electronics and would love if someone could give an excellent explanation of the two)
So we could have stalled our mini cim and blew that?
