Pro-Pointer trouble question?:confused:

[ffhauck]

My Pro-Pointer wants to keep buzzing for no reason and I have to turn it off for awhile so it will start working normally.
Can anyone help me with this or is this a Warranty problem. This pointer is just two months old.

If a new battery does'nt cure it, send it to Garrett. They will have a new one sent to you in less than two weeks.

I agree a new battery. Mine did the same changed the batery and no worries. Additionally, if used as a deep probe by placing metal to adjust depth does kill the battery quicker. There manual does have some comment about do that.

Note:
Do not affix metallic labels (or any material that
might cause the detector to alarm) to the detection
area of the PRO-POINTER. Doing so might cause an
imbalance within the detection field and thereby reduce
scanning effectiveness.

If the battery doesn't fix it turn it in for repair.

[size=large]mine has done this a few times but just turning it off and back on seemed to fix it for now. i'm lucky that if it needs to go in i have an other one to use in the mean time. the newer one is a little differant from the older. they were bought new about three months apart. i'm a little leary about the newest cause the older one has yet to act up and has a stronger sound. darn good probe though. i won't go with out it.[/size]
