Very frustrated with my Fisher ID excel!

[John (Ma)]

The last three outings have been cut short due to something acting up in the detector. The screen shows 88 and stays there making it so I cannot use it. The first couple outings this happened about 2hrs into it and today it happened about 30-40 minutes into it. This has been very frustrating, as this is my only detector! I wrote Fisher yesterday and have not heard anything yet. Anyone have any ideas what I can do? When the detector is working, its a great detector.

Have you called a customer help line?? Could be something simple. I don't know enough about your detector to be helpful, but maybe a quick call would help??

It has been a long time since I even touched my Excel, but I seem to remember that 88 is back to the factory time.

Thanks alot guys, I will try the number and I have that feeling your right about going back to the factory.
