After finding the BB gun and a couple dollars in change at the park yesterday with the CZ 21 I decided to head out again this morning. I put in a fresh set of batteries and fired it up and got nothing. Check the voltage coming out of the 9 volt battery holder and I have 18 plus volts coming out of it. checked the posts on the inside of the detector battery compartment and I have 18 plus volts going into the machine. The funny thing is, I have my machine on an Anderson shaft, so the machine itself is actually upside down under the arm cuff. When I roll the machine over into its upright position it will work. When I roll it back upside down it turns off. the only thing I can think of is that there is something loose on the inside of the case shorting it out when it's upside down but allowing it to run in the right side up position. I'm not sure what's going on, I haven't dropped it or even bumped it hard enough to move any electronics on the inside of the case.
