When a vape suddenly stops responding, the cause is not always immediately obvious. It may be from a drained battery, a problem with the interchangeable cartridge, or even a condensation buildup around the contact points. Thankfully, there are a handful of simple troubleshooting tips you can follow to solve most common OXVA issues.
Why Is My OXVA Not Turning On?
If the OXVA does not start up, start by recharging the battery. Use the adaptor specified in the user manual and leave it to charge, then try again.
After you charge it, press the fire button five times within two seconds, with a clear, distinct press each time – clicking too rapidly can cause the product to miss individual presses
Try using the vape again after 5 appropriate clicks. If no response is received, then the next step is to contact support for OXVA for additional assistance.
What If the OXVA Is Not Charging?
Sometimes the charging problem is an issue with the charger, not with the vape.
First, determine if the charger is functioning correctly. Use a different appropriate adaptor and USB-C cable if possible, and then leave the vape to charge for around 30 minutes.
Note that it is also crucial to use the adaptor specified in the user manual.
Why Won’t My OXVA Fire At All
If the vape is turned on but still cannot produce vapour, you should find out whether the vape has sufficient battery power.
Take a draw and watch whether the battery indicator responds. This can help you determine if the vape system is working in response to your inhale.
If the battery looks fine, but the vape still doesn’t fire, replace the cartridge with a new one. If something is wrong with the cartridge, it may prevent it from functioning properly, and the next step would be to test another one so you can solve the problem.
Why Does My OXVA Say No Atomizer?
Usually, the “No Atomizer” message indicates one of two issues: either the vape isn’t detecting the cartridge or its coil.
The contact pins may get dirty with regular operation, which can cause poor contact between the cartridge and pod port. Clean the contact points on the vape and the bottom of the cartridge with a clean cloth, or follow a suitable alcohol-based cleaning method.
If the message doesn’t disappear, then try another cartridge. This can help identify if it’s a problem with the cartridge or vape.
What If the OXVA Is Not Firing Properly?
If the vape fires inconsistently or the draw does not feel right, first make an adjustment to the airflow. Set the airflow around half open and test the draw again.
Problems could also be with the internal sensor. Normal firing may be interfered with if the sensor is not set in the correct location or liquid was allowed to flow into the sensor area.
If adjusting the airflow does not produce any results, do not perform any internal adjustments. If it remains, seek help from the support staff.
How Can You Fix a Loose or Sunken Pin?
Contact pins can occasionally become loose or sink into their position, causing the cartridge to be disconnected.
A pair of tweezers is used to carefully grasp or move the pin if it can be reached. The contact pin can also be pressed slightly to aid in restoring the pin to its place.
Be careful; do not press too hard. If the pin is still loose, or if the vape still doesn’t detect the cartridge, contact the support team for OXVA Vape.
Why Is There No Display While Vaping?
If the RGB light flashes but the screen doesn’t produce any information when vaping, that’s because the fire button is not pressed. LED is activated upon vaping with a press of the fire button and shows data like watts and puffs.
So, if the screen does not display anything when the automatic draw is activated, it does not necessarily indicate that there is a problem. The display behaviour changes depending on whether the fire button is being used.
Get Your OXVA Working Again
The first step in diagnosing an OXVA is to charge the battery, inspect the cartridge, clean the contact points, and test with a new cartridge if needed. If basic troubleshooting does not succeed, contact OXVA support for further diagnosis.
