I've only had my M6 go crazy when I can't get it balanced for salt water. Your MXT Pro is probably running quite a bit hotter so it's even more important to get the ground balance correct.

This is the code I get, sorry for not posting this to begin with. "Overload- reduce gain/lift loop" all when standing in the middle on my yard holding the machine 6 feet off the ground.

I would unscrew the coil wire from the unit and make sure nothing looks funny on the cord and the box end.

Yes, run it without the coil wire plugged in. If it still shows "Overload", the problem is in the detector electronics. If the "Overload" goes away, you have a bad coil.

Thanks Rudy I did just that and it works fine with out the coil. Thanks again for the support at 4 days old and only 3 times out in my pasture it has me worried but the reviews I read about White's I have nothing to worry about!

Thanks again!
