[QUOTE="condor22, post: 221618, member: 1932"] Like with all electrical things, the problem needs to be isolated. There are 3 basic areas to look at. [list=*] [*]The detector[/*] [*]The Battery[/*] [*]The Headphones[/*] [/list] The guy I mentioned had a GPX5000, so do I. So we started by swapping headphones mine to his. The problem was still there, so not the phones as they were ok on my machine. We then put his battery on my machine and the problem was still there with either headphone set. So we start to lean toward battery. We confirmed this by putting my battery on his machine and with either set of phones, there was no problem. So in a few minutes we isolated the battery as the cause. [/QUOTE]
