Bounty Hunter Crashes!!!!

[MUD(S.W.A.T)]

Hi everyone? My Bounty Hunter Quick Draw 2 is doing something I can't figure out. It beeps 4 or five high pitches and all the arrows on the screen flash and it won't stop. I turn it off and then try again and it dose the same thing. The battery light dose not come on when this happens. I also think you have to be searching for it to happen. Anyone know what this is?

Thanks, HH!!

Try changing the batteries.

I would agree with the battery change suggestion. Also, check your manual for a "reboot" procedure. It usually involves turning the machine on, removing the batteries for a minute or so, then replacing them.

Good luck!

If the battery changes don't fix it and it still happens when it responds to metal then I would venture to guess the circutry has become unstable. I've had a similar experience with another brand and was covered under warranty, talked with tech support and sent it in for repair, but the manufacturer actually sent me a new machine to replace it. Yes , I'm a satisfied Garrett customer.

I changed the batteries and it has not happend again yet. But now in coin mode it won't pick up pennies.

Sounds like you have a mainboard problem.

Any chance you got moisture in it. If so let it set for a week and dry out. Then try it. When mine went swimming it did all the above, but after I let it dry out. It was fine.
