Argus Matrix: Screen shows E2 and the light flashes red twice

The screen displays E2 and the indicator light flashes red twice. The device has detected a short circuit and stopped firing as a safety measure.

Why this happens

  • Dirty or wet contacts between the pod and the device body, preventing a clean electrical connection
  • The pod is not seated correctly or is slightly misaligned
  • A faulty or damaged coil inside the pod causing a short circuit
  • A faulty pod itself, even with a new coil fitted

How to fix it

  1. Remove the pod and inspect the electrode contacts on both the pod and the device body. Wipe them clean with a dry cloth or cotton bud to remove any e-liquid residue or debris.
  2. Reinsert the pod, then try rotating it 180 degrees so it sits in the opposite orientation. This can resolve a poor contact caused by slight misalignment.
  3. If the E2 error persists, remove the current coil and fit a fresh replacement coil, then reseat the pod and test again.
  4. If a new coil does not clear the error, try a different pod entirely. If the error clears with a different pod, the original pod is faulty.
  5. If none of the above steps resolve the E2 error, the device may have an internal fault. Stop using it and contact VooPoo support or your retailer for further assistance.
