Depth Finder Not working

[craazyboutbass]

Ok, I have 2 depth finders on my new boat. One up on the trolling motor and the other one, of course on the back by the drivers. </p>

Well, the one on the back just quit working the other day. I fiddled around with the battery to see if there may be corrosion or bad wiring but nothing seemed to pop up... So since they were both the same depth finders I just pulled themonitor off the front and placed on the back and it works just fine. </p>

Its something wrong with the monitor then, anyone have any ideas? BTW, the depth finders are not under warranty anymore!</p>

Thanks for your replies,</p>

Apparantly your transducers are fine and your problem is with the unit itself. I would go on the website of the brand you have and see if you can send it in. I know if it's a Humminbird you can do that and it cost around $65 for repair work (at least mine did) but prices vary with different units. Good luck.

What model/make was it that went bad...

Both of them are HUMMINGBIRD 535s. Nothing too special but just one of the units arent working.

Crazzy the Lowrances have a hard reset or something like that, which is the first thing the factory techs tell you to try. It like pushing a couple of specific buttons at the same time and holding them for a few seconds. Don`t know for sure but HB might have something like that too. Just a thought !
