Diversion

The angle of the FH transducer has not changed, so no simple fix there. When I get my probe and display back the first thing I'm going to try is to leave the kicker off, see if that is the source of this new issue and go from there. Next step will be finding someone who has a FH probe I can swap with to troubleshoot. Thanks for all the suggestions so far guys! Appreciate it.

Switching off the 50 khz was the first thing I tried, that had no effect unfortunately. Customer service said it was highly unlikely that the FH transducer went bad. So that leaves me with something in the wiring went bad or my kicker setup now is messing it up.

So my X4D quit working after 4 uses, I still get surface readings but the down speed, temp and depth stopped working. After trouble shooting and calling customer service, they had me send in my probe & display, they said they are both fine. So now to trouble shoot the boat side of things. I have my FH transducer mounted on the port side same side as my kicker. Furuno trans is mounted on starboard side. This setup worked just fine for 4 trips then quit working on the 5th trip after an hour. I haven't changed anything with how the boat is rigged. Is it possible that I'm getting interference from something I'm not mentioning that would cause the probe signals to get lost? Looking for suggestions on what to look at next. First thing I'm going to try is to troll with the main only, leave kicker & control king turned off, see if that's suddenly my issue.

Big Spoon, do you have a link to what check valve you used?

Appreciate the information, thank you Sent from my LM-G710VM using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Can someone who owns or fishes on a 26 Striper tell me how deep the inside cockpit is? The 2601 looks like a nice boat, I don't know of any local to me that I could just go look at. With little kids interior depth is rather important to me. I currently have a 24 Penn Yan which is deep so that the kids can't fall out of. Thanks

Where did you go, what area are you interested in? That will impact the information that you need.

Bumper will stay on while fishing then, thanks! Sent from my LM-G710VM using Lake Ontario United mobile app
