Someone heeeeeelllllppppppppp :P
We have a problem with the cable,if you touch the cable where it is pluged,detector starts making sounds,it screams like crazy, i think the cable has a problem,and alot of times when the coil touches the grass it gives false alarms...like its screaming everytime the coil touches something...:/

Sounds like a short in the wire / connector.

 

[LilBulldogJunior]

Its probably it...well one more lession learned..never buy used detectors

 

[CRUSADER]

The cable has a break.

[LilBulldogJunior]

Sorry to hear that it went south. you might take it to a dealer for assessment, may be cost effective to have repaired.
