Weapon keeps coming up disabled on my ship. Ship won't take repairs. If I take weapon out of ship I can't use a weapon repair kit on it. If I put the weapon back in the ship. Looks fine at first until I try to fire it, immediately comes up disabled. Is this a known or unknown bug? Sure would like to know because I am running a tie advanced and it is extremely hard to find low mass weapons for the ship.

Make sure you have enough reactor energy to use the gun or that you have a capacitor on your ship. Thats the only reasons I can think of that would cause that message to occur without the weapon itself being damaged.

Hope someone can help me with this:
i looted one weapon that i wanted to install in my ship. I am cert. to it.
When i fire , it says "your weapon is disabled", but if i examinate it i think it is ok.
Why will this happen?
Thanks in advance.

Check your reactor load. You may have picked up a weapon that requires more then reactor is putting out. When in the manage screen you may notice that the reactor read out is red. If so then you need a reactor with more output.

No, the reactor has enough energy for the weapon, even for the standard and this one at the same time. ¿¿¿¿¿¿???????

Sounds like your main reactor isn't producing enough power to fire the weapon. Either you went slightly over your reactor's limit while managing the parts and didn't notice, or else made the weapon drain more energy by using one of the droid commands that increases weapon strength.
If the reactor is the problem, you will need to either get a reacter which generates more power, or use a droid command to boost reactor power everytime you want to use the gun.

Make sure your 'weapon capacitor' has energy.
While in space, hit your 'V' key to brign up your ship console.
Make sure that the weapon that your are tring to fire does not have a disabled/low energy icon next to it.
While in space, hit your 'G' key to bring up your weapons console, then hit the 'restore defaults' button.

What kind of ship is it?? I have the same problem with the jedi starfighter that Lord Vader gave me. If this is the same problem you are having it may be that we have to use an 'elite' weapon. I am currently mining away so that I can build one/some and see....
