The Orange Box: Half-Life 2: Episode Two Hints
I've reached the autogun, but how can I turn it off?
1 of 7: Notice that it's connected via cables to a large nearby device.
2 of 7: The device has a small control panel with a couple of red lights on it, so try using that.
3 of 7: It'll just lower and raise a panel on the device. Not very useful.
4 of 7: Lower the panel and examine the device carefully. How might you disable or destroy it?
5 of 7: Look around nearby to find another infinite ammo crate for frag grenades. Give you any ideas?
6 of 7: Why not try lobbing grenades into the device while its panel is open?
7 of 7: Stand back a bit and toss grenades at the open panel until one falls down inside the device and blows it to pieces.
