It could be anything.

Have you taken it apart and see if you have visible problems that you can fix?

Check out the numerous posts over time about these guns. If you are sure it is clean and has a good battery, check the expiration date on the fuel cylinder. Just because you just purchased or installed it does not mean it has not lost pressure. If it is none of the above, sounds like a trip to the service center, there is an internal contact switch that can fail, and when it does, the gun will do absolutely nothing.

If you are sure it is clean and the battery is good, check the expiration date on the fuel cylinder. Just because you recently purchased or installed it does not mean that it has not lost pressure. If none of these, sounds like a trip to the repair center is in order. There is an internal contact switch that can go bad, and will result in the gun doing absoloutely nothing. If the fan runs, it is not this switch, so I would suspect old fuel, a cylinder not properly seated in the little "V" notch in the gun. or a bad rack of nails. If the rack is too bent or the collation tape is swollen it can stop the nails from advancing fully to the firing position and will engage the anti dry fire mechanism.
