This seems to be a common problem with P90s but this may also help those of you that are having a similar issues with your AEGs.
After having my P90 crap out on me in the middle of an OP I was dumb-founded as to what it could be. The gun simply wasn't shooting. The motor wasn't cranking and the gearbox wasn't making any noise whatsoever. So the first thing I checked was the battery itself to see if it had died on me. After switching batteries that wasn't the problem. I then checked the outside wires, connectors, and then proceeded to check the fuse. After all of it was intact I was advised to see how the trigger felt. Which I then noticed that the trigger wasn't going back far enough to make contact to complete the circuit. I then removed the gearbox and attached a battery and manually "pulled" the trigger back and Eureka! The gearbox started going.
I slid the gearbox back in, made sure the trigger was pulling back the whole way, put the screws and faceplate back in.
So to sum up if your AEG isn't firing and you can't hear any noises from the gearbox or motor, then definitely check your battery, fuse and wires. First thing to check is the trigger. And hopefully from there you will be able to further determine the problem.
Big thanks to Connors, Ghast, Big Texas and everyone else that contributed in diagnosing and helping me fix the problem I just experienced.
