Rebreather from Jack isn't working.

[Cabbo]

So I'm on the mission where you have to float the lady and when I equip the rebreather it tells me the water breathing has been added yet I still have the same amount of oxygen when I go underwater and I am still take damage when the oxygen runs out, any ideas what the problem might be or how I can fix it?

Edit: I've looked at it in the GECK with all of my mods loaded and it still has the correct scripts

make sure to equip it before going underwater

Could be another headgear you're wearing messing it up, especially if it's modded. You can always try dropping it and picking it back up, or removing it and adding it to your inventory again using the console.

Well i managed to complete the quest without the rebrether, i dunno what did go wrong.
If you have Project Nevada Rebalance (or something like that) try messing around with it and then just roll the changes back if it didn't work.
But here is a link to the wikia: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Rebreather
-If the rebreather doesn't work (which might be caused by some mods on PC), PC players can use console command 'player.modav waterbreathing 1' to get around the problem.
OFC if you use any cheats you won't earn any achievements

Some mods conflict with the script of rebrether that allows it to give you infinite oxygen.
Try to disable some of your mods until you finish the quest.

I don't wear headgear but thanks for the suggestion. I managed to complete the quest without it it's just I like the look of the rebreather on my character so I'm keeping it on but it would be nice if it actually worked, I'll look into PN Rebalance to see if I can find the problem
