Hi Yvette - thank you for subscribing to my channel! I love yard sale finds, that is the only way I can afford my many fascinations! I do not repair items professionally anymore. The good news is that with a little learning from RUclips, and some inexpensive tools from AliExpress you will be able to fix many things yourself. Do not be afraid to take things apart and just look....sometimes you will see a leaking component (usually a capacitor), a grey/loose solder joint (cold solder) that can be reflowed with a soldering iron to repair. Sometimes it is a broken wire, or just dirty contacts on connectors (isopropyl alcohol is good for cleaning). If you get stuck, feel free to msg me and I will help where I can. Good luck with the detecting, it is a fun hobby!
Do you take repair Jon’s on these types of units. I just picked one up at a yard sale and would like to have it repaired.
