after finding the BB gun yesterday I decided to go back out this morning. Put in a fresh set of batteries and got nothing. Testing the voltage coming out of the battery holder, 18 plus volts. Check voltage at the posts going into the machine, also 18-plus volts. my detector is on an Anderson shaft so it's it's upside down under the arm cuff. if I roll the machine into its upright position it works, as soon as I roll it back upside down it quits working. There are no loose connections in the battery compartment and the voltage stays the same whether it's upside-down or right-side up. I'm not sure what's going on as I have not dropped or even bumped the detector hard enough to loosen anything inside the case. It just refuses to work upside down anymore. Anyone have any ideas? it's just a bummer that I have to send off my machine for repair after only having it a couple months.

CZ 21 will not work upside down anymore
- Thread starter H2OAU
- Start date
Heard back from Felix at First Texas today, apparently there is something messed up with a wire in the coil cable where it goes into the housing causing it to work right side up but not upside down. also the machine is way out of adjustment, which would explain why it's always been very hard if at all possible to ground balance. I'm eager to get it back and see what it will do working properly since I I've done pretty well with it not working properly.

Good to know, my CZ20 is not working properly, It turns on but is not beeping over a target. Last time I used it before I discovered it had a problem , it was fine but I did drop it on a hard surface , maybe that circuit board came loose ?
I'll try and dismantle it and see if I can find anything obvious.
Cheers
