Well, you're going to have to butterfly it (take it apart) to figure out what's going on. It's possible one of the lock switches is broken/stuck. It's also possible the thermistor is burnt out because the previous owner tried to overvolt it.

In any case, the RapidStrike is the most complex Nerf flywheel blaster from an electrical standpoint because there's circuitry that returns the pusher to the fully retracted position even when you let go of the firing trigger. It's a remarkable, but complicated blaster.

How comfortable are you with a multimeter MrDert ? Because I think you have an electrical problem, and it's going to take some diagnostic skill to figure it out.
