Lowrance HDS7 Gen 1

I am having some issues with my units. They just started going back to the start up screen like being turned on when I start the motor. I have an almost new battery showing a full charge, but the engine starter seems to be a little sluggish on the first crank, even after many start ups during the day. Yamaha 250

Also, I lost and can't seem to get back GPS mph on my screens.

Any ideas? Thanks Paul

The newer electronics are voltage sensititive so when you crank the big motor the voltage drops below the minimum. Check all the FF wiring and connections, could be loose or corroded. The low voltage could have erased your settings, check the menu settings.
