    You could try antother area, as the ground may not agree with it and also assure you have fresh batteries. We have one and in certain areas it acts like that. If it acts the same somewhere else, you could email or call Whites and see what they think. They have been very good to me. Good luck.

    What did it do when you reduced your sensitivity all the way down? Coil wire loose? Coil connector loose? Both batteries alkaline and fresh? Power lines overhead? Buried? Coil technique good? I'm just trying to eliminate the simple things...

    Well i called Whites and after speaking to one of the service guys.I was telling him that on a forum it said the ground balance was off on this other guys machine and he ajusted it.Well it turns out my used machine is from Arizona so ground mieralization is differente than California and it may neeed ground balance ajustment from 2 screws under the box but the guy said to send it to him to adjust so will see ill let you guys know guess some of these machines are a little finacky

    You don't have to take it apart. There are two tiny rubber plugs in the bottom corners on the back side. One is for threshold and the other GB. You can adjust the pots with a small screwdriver.

    The trimmers are not made for many adjustments. So set if for your ground and forget it. Good luck!
