Hy
I own a Fisher Impulse underwater detector.
Unfortunately,sea water got into the battery compartment. I cleaned it out and dried it.
The problem is that my manual tuning knob has stopped working and the detector wont tune.
The detection has almost ceased unless it is a large iron object. The coil dosent see coins or other small metal objects.
It was working correctly before the flood.
The forums say the battery compartment is fully sealed and water cant ingress into the main control area.
Is there anything else i can do to recify the problem.
As my trusty detector is quite old now, its not worth sending it off for repair.
Ive got nothing to lose by opening the main control box just to see if water has got in.
Can anyone explain how I open up the main control box.
Hoping someone can help me
Note
The only two control knobs it has, shows the battery is OK
