[carlito]

YOU SAY THAT YOUR V995 DOES NOT GO OFF At WOLLYWORLD MAYBE
YOUR DETECTOR IS LIKE MINE WE HAVE A FEW WALMARTS HERE AND ON ONE WALMART MY RADAR DETECTOR DOES NOT GO OFF I FIND THIS very STRANGE BECAUSE AT THE OTHERE ONES MY radar DETECTOR GOES OFF WITH K BAND SO YOUR RADAR DETECTOR MIGHT BE WORKING OK
SNICE YOU SEEM TO HAVE THAT PROBLEM GO TO A DIFFERNT STORE AND TRY. BUT ALL I WANTTED IS TO LET U KNOW THAT NOT all radar detctors go off a wollyword maybe they are useing different freq of door openners 8)

My 995 did not go off last night when I went to Wal-Mart but picked up the police on the way home just fine. I think they must use a frequency outside the range of the detector.

Yeah when I first got mine all it detected was Wally World, Home depot, Lows, anything with auto doors. After a week or two it finally found a cop posted on the highway. I also called Bel today and they pissed me off soo bad, I called right when i got out of school to go to work and sat on the phone for 45 mins. I dropped the phone and went into work. I don’t know but either allot of people have problems or someone is talking to family or something.

I had bought a BEL-vector 995 like 2 years ago or something like that and right after my warranty went out exactly on the next day my vector gave me a calibration error. I called the BEL up and they said they could fix it but I figured they would charge me enough where I can just buy another cheap one, so I didn’t send it off. Then after a week I figured id give it another shot and it started up with no problems or anything. I usually pass by this Wal-Mart where it usually went off but it didn’t this time, and every time I go out now it work it turns on and could show my volts being used and stuff but it won’t detect anything. Anyone got something in mind or could suggest anything for me? :?

I had a 980 that had a voltmeter mode. When it was in that mode it did not detect radar. When I exited that mode it would detect radar. I don't recall if the 995 works the same way or not when the voltmeter mode is enabled. Check the owner's manual or call BEL.
