My Bounty Hunter Tracker IV just stopped working. I had unused batteries with me and changed them. No luck. Changed the coil, nope. put the headphones in, nada. Please, can one of you experienced MDer's give me some advice. I started detecting 2 months ago and love it. Today, all was going good. I rinsed the coil and went to another beach, turned on the machine and tested it only to find it was lifeless! Could a small splash of water have killed it? I usually rinse the salt water off the coil and never had a problem. Prayer is that tomorrow (my birthday and ready to weep) I will find that the new batteries were no good....I hope! Funny thing is....the detector never showed that the batteries were weak. And in 10 minutes time it went from working to no sound, no needle movement. Please help....I will fix it myself if I have someone to advise me on what to do. Thank you!
