If you have a older minelab you are so out of luck. does not sound good. This to me is very poor customer support on there part. 99% of all other manufactures will repair there old detectors.
Do not have parts to fix the old detectors come on seems like if you want a minelab you will have to buy a new one if your breaks.

Same thing happen to me with my Whites PI surfmaster. It is 25+ years old and I am in need of some headphones for it. they told me that they quit making them so they could not repair it. So I had to buy a different detector....Matt

To me it seems pretty logic, they only have so and so many spare pieces as they stop to do a detector, after those pieces are used, well they can't do more. Very logical.

Jason,
The Whites PI surf master had hard-wired headphones, a water proof detector I think?
Maybe I'm all wrong though.

Some companies are still making same product they were ten years ago. So new parts are same as old parts. Minelab has made alot of new detectors in the last ten years.

Dear group;
What in the world The SD2100v2 supposedly went off off the market just this last JANUARY!!! In fact, some dealers still have the SD2100v2 in stock!!! Also, all prior versions of the SD2100 are internally IDENTICAL!!! This makes NO SENSE AT ALL!!!

The SD2100 is the one they do not repair.
You have a SD2100v2. I'm sure they still would repair yours.

Dear vondrewvious;
Yes my friend, I understand this, however all of the SD2100 series detectors are internally identical to each other, therefore it makes no sense to be able to repair only the SD2100v2 and not the original green box SD2100 or the SD2100e, when they all share exactly the same circuit boards.
