The company says it's not a voltage issue, when I run the system check it says it is getting 12 volts Beats me, I'm going to do the software upgrade, then hook it to independent battery.... it neither works they are sending me a transducer to test

7 posts and no beer Where am i

The good news is that I called cabelas and even though it was an as is unit because it was in their bargain bin they said they would not want to sell me a broken unit so if hummingbird finds a broke head or transducer and won't honor a replacement cabelas will work with me to make it right one way or another. I have always had great luck with them

Well I'm going to wire this directly to a battery. It it does not work the head and transducer will be sent in for testing

Appreciate it but I'm in Binghamton and fish Cayuga and oz

my fish hawk is on the other side of the outboard and I asked fishhawk if they would interfere and they said no, and it does this even when every other electronic on the boat is off

Hummingbird does not think it's a power issue. They said if that was the issue I would get more screen freezing and restarts not loss of depth... they asked me to check the software I'm running. They also asked if I had somebody local I could swap heads with and see if their head works on mine and mine on theirs to isolate if it is a head or transducer issue

I'm going g to call them today and talk with their support. My next course of action will be take a different battery and hook it directly to it and see what happens.

I'm really not electronicly sound... I removed a fish finder and GPS unit... this does sound like a wiring issue, I may take it to Moore's in Ithaca who did all the wiring the first time around... What a mess

Hmmm ...

Vince are you saying voltage as in how much juice it is sucking from the battery? At this point I'm about 100% sure it isn't a settings issue

New hummingbird fish finder install and having big issues Installed a hummingbird 859xd Take it out and works like a charm and as soon as we hit 50fow it just can not track bottom or get display any reading back Odd thing is when I turn it off and turn it back on it will read the depth even in 200fow for about 3 seconds and then cheap out again, so it clearly works then just messes up again. This is both at dead still and trolling speeds. Any clue what's going on?

Check your pms
