I guess theres something is wrong it wont quit going BLAAAAAA at all, even 3 ft in the air tried re-setting nothing works

Did you try resetting the detector to its default setting. Turn it on....then hold the on button for about 20 seconds. The machine will beep twice and then it will be in factory mode. You can now adjust the machine to your preferred settings. If this doesn't correct the machine, try a different coil. Yours might be faulty. Good luck. Quite often the resetting to the default mode corrects it.

Yeah rebooting it cures a lot of ills. Wonder if he has the old style coil.

If it is a white imaging coil it most likely has a crack in the coil. I had one that done the something. I had to replace the coil.

Ive re-booted as well nothing might be the coil or maybe the new chip Ive heard.

 

[Uncle Willy]

Do you have the new style coil?

Bill

 

[Bill30785]

I believe so its the white one

 

[Uncle Willy]

Yeah that's the old style coil. It may be bad. Check it closely for hairline cracks. Then contact Mary Penson at Garrett.
