It sounds like its discriminating, and "nulling" or canceling out the threshold tone. Are you in coin mode when this happens? In trashy areas the Etrac's threshold tone is quiet or there is a really deep target not registering on the screen. Try using the "quickmask" option when this happens.

Try taking the skid plate off too and give it a clean.

You mean the detector will turn off without you doing anything? If that's the case it's a power or connection issue so change to alks if you're using the charger pack and see how that goes. For other problems did you try doing a factory restart?
