To Next PageTo Next PageWhat to do if my Bounty Hunter Lone Star Metal Detector has no power and no sounds?
If your Bounty Hunter Metal Detector has no power and produces no sounds, the possible causes are dead batteries, a loose cord connection, or not moving the search coil. Try replacing the batteries, checking the connections, and sweeping the search coil from side to side.
How to fix LCD if it does not lock on to one Target-ID or detector emits multiple tones on my Bounty Hunter Metal Detector?
If the LCD of your Bounty Hunter Metal Detector doesn't lock onto one Target-ID or the detector emits multiple tones, it could be due to multiple targets being present, a highly oxidized target, or the sensitivity being set too high. Try moving the coil slowly at different angles and reduce the sensitivity.
Why does my Bounty Hunter Lone Star chatter or beep erratically?
Your Bounty Hunter Metal Detector might chatter or beep erratically due to several reasons: using it indoors, proximity to power lines, having two detectors too close, a highly oxidized buried object, or environmental electromagnetic interference. To solve this, use the detector outdoors only, move away from power lines, keep detectors at least 30 feet apart, only dig up repeatable signals, or reduce sensitivity until the erratic signals cease.
Why does my Bounty Hunter Metal Detector have a constant low tone or constant repeating tones?
A constant low tone or constant repeating tones from your Bounty Hunter Metal Detector can be caused by discharged or the wrong type of batteries. You should replace the batteries and use only 9V alkaline batteries.
