  • I have an older Garrett pro pointer which has a broken resistor looking component off the motherboard and all functions stopped including power and I can’t find nowhere on the internet even with the numbers that are on it what it is or anything about it.

    • Take a picture of the broken component and the board with the missing spot it and post it with the values that you say you can read on it. I identify what the component is and than search for it with the value printed on it. It helps to start the search knowing what you are looking for then knowing the values of the component. Good luck.

  • I broke off two of the wires – a red and a black one. How can I know where those two go?
    only have a red wire attacked to the 3rd/bottom one, going by your photo.

    As you show the black wire being in two different locations, I’m confused.
