1. Non-functioning search heads
If you have a non-functional search head, try to analyze the condition. Check for any mud or dirt sticking on your metal detector's search head.

In order to avoid any battery-related problems with your metal detector, it is best to stash them in the "fridge" when not in use. By doing this your batteries will last longer.
However, remember to place them on a lukewarm "radiator" an hour before you start metal detecting. This will give your batteries the opportunity to revive their functions.
3. Turn it off
Always turn off your metal detector before repairing it. This is to avoid any further dilemma. Best of all, try to avoid starting your repairs right after you have used your metal detector. Let the parts cool down before you start touching them.
