    Meter trouble with vintage White's 6000/di series 3

    Thank you Larry(IL). I have 3 white's detectors, 2 6000/di series 2 and 1 6000/di series 3 which I obtained from my brother. I have had the first 2 for about 40 years and have had little or no problems with them in that time. If there was a problem I could usually figure it out. The meter...

    Meter Problem Solved on White's 6000/di series 3 Detector.

    Many thanks to Carl-NC for his correct diagnosis of my detector. After taking the cover off and opening the the box, I sprayed the rotary mode switch with electrical cleaner spray and put the detector back together. Turned it on and the meter worked again...for now. Carl had mentioned that this...

    Meter trouble with vintage White's 6000/di series 3

    Thank you Carl. You have been very helpful. I will replace the trigger switch, which I have already purchased, and see if that is the problem. If not I will see what I can do about the rotary switch. Either that or break down and buy a new detector. I love this detector and hope it can be fixed...

    Also, something that might effect your diagnosis is that the detector DOES work in the GEB Disc. mode but the meter DOES NOT respond when hitting a target.

    Meter trouble with vintage White's 6000/di series 3

    Thank you Carl. That is the kind of answer I've been looking for, a specific problem. I bought another trigger switch and I'm going to replace it hoping that is the problem. But it sounds like it is more serious. I have a couple of older 6000/di machines that I don't use much anymore and I will...

    Meter trouble with vintage White's 6000/di series 3

    I was hoping to avoid opening the box if possible thinking it may just be soldering connection at the meter or trigger switch. All wires at the meter and switch are solid. I was thinking someone had this problem and knew specifically what it was. I guess it could be any number of things. I have...

    Meter trouble with vintage White's 6000/di series 3

    Thanks for the advise. That thought did cross my mind but I was a little hesitant about opening up the detector. I am going order another trigger switch and see if that is the problem. If that doesn't work I will take your advice. I love this detector and would hate to part with it. Thanks again...

    Meter trouble with vintage White's 6000/di series 3

    I have a vintage White's 6000/di series 3 metal detector. It's been working fine for years. Last year we replaced the switch that changes the mode on the handle. After the switch was replaced it worked great. This year the meter needle does not move in the GEB Discriminate mode. It does not...
