Unscrew your tank and hit the fire button to reset the resistance. Then screw the tank back on and see if that helps. If so, make sure to hit the fire button before screwing on a new tank.

What tank what wire in coil?
Make sure you are on the correct setting.
After you do the above depending on coil lock the resistance.

I find that resistance lock is generally not a good thing on the G2, BigNasty. That error FlyHigh is getting appears to be a bug or glitch in the firmware as far as I can tell, have got past it doing what Wingsfan said most of the time, but sometimes have to shut the device down, restart, and then do the unscrew atty/hit the fire button to reset routine...Or was it reset then power on/off? May have to admit that I have too many mods to remember all keystrokes lol

Do what Wings said. Hit the fire button till it says check atomizer. Screw the atty on and vape. Every time you switch attys you have to reset the resistance by doing this. It's the way the mod was designed. The board is not like a DNA or most boards now that do an automatic read on the resistance. You have to manually reset every time.

Check and see if your 510 on the mod is depressed enough where the insulator isnt stopping a short, this is also a possibility. Just push it down with a Qtip and see if it jumps back up.

I only lock it when switching attys. I clear it like wings but lock it and fire once or twice, take it off and vape unlocked on kanthal.
IF ss or ti I would lock it.

Gave up on using anything but xxx mode on this mod. Yeah, yeah, I know, you guys told me so but had to learn the hard way. So perhaps resistance lock works in SS or Ti, but for triple x... ess no goood.

What's xxx mode anyway and I have another problem I tried to update it and it won't connect and the drivers won't work in the update folder. I have an older computer that runs windows vista

I think you need 7 or higher unless Ray has done a sw package for vista.

Just kidding. 3 clicks on the mode button will get you to Advanced TC Mode. You can scroll to XXX and select with the fire button. It's the "any metal" TC mode and seems to work the best of all the modes.

take apart the Kennedy completely, clean it, reassemble, put in a new build and try it out

It might be the 510 is too long on the Kennedy, if so it bottoms out the 510 pin. I only have the problem with Horizon tech tanks like the Arctic V8 and Cerakoat, I just add a drip tip oring to the 510 if the tank and that always works. You can also use one of those mod saver spacers like this: http://www.kidneypuncher.com/kp-mod-guard-5-pack/ which usually lift the 510 high enough to stop it from bottoming out the pin.

Edit: You can check and see if that is the problem by backing out your kennedy a little to see if it then does work when it is not tightened down.

Mine was the opposite TBH. the longer smok tank 510 pins worked great, the shorter RDA 510 pins didn't.

I just ordered the G2 today.

My G1, did this type of stuff too. It would NEVER read BOTH of my tobeco subtank mini's, which is by far and away my favorite tank and what I like to use more than anything else.

Praying the G2 doesn't have similar issues, obviously.
