It's a 0.33Ω current sense resistor, at the input of a switching boost regulator. There are two probable causes; (1) the switching regulator itself is blown or (2) something downstream from the regulator has shorted. You should hope for #1 as it is far easier to find & fix.

Centerville is mostly a board-swap repair, unless this is a known problem I'm not sure they'll be able to help. They almost certainly won't have a replacement board.

From what you posted I'd venture to say you could repair it.
Making an offer ??
Would you need a scope to fully troubleshoot this issue. Or just a good multi meter ?
I'd love to know if you could help me run down a crank no start 2012 F150.
Been layed up three weeks now. PM me if so.

Just wondering since Garrett bought out Whites if they could give you a lead on parts or Repair? I'm sure Whites had to have some old parts laying around. Jmho...

The 6000 Di Pro was my first brand new in the box detector I bought shorty after it became available.
All I had was a few used beat-up detectors prior. BFO, T/R kind of stuff. The 6000 was like years ahead to me when I got it - really had a lot of good times with it.
