Why does my Garrett ACE detector make erratic sounds or show erratic target ID?
- AAlyssa ReyesJul 27, 2025
Erratic sounds or Target ID cursor movement in your Garrett Metal Detector can occur due to excessive metal indoors. Make sure you are not using the detector indoors where excessive amounts of metal are found. Also, ensure your search coil is securely connected and the coil cable is tightly wound around the stem. Reducing your sensitivity setting may also help. Check if you are close to other metal detectors or metal structures such as electrical power lines, wire fences, or benches.
