Post by muskyhunter » Sat Apr 19, 2008 3:18 pm

Does any work on this type of electronics? I've got one that sends out a signal but does not recieve one back. Or would i be better off just buying a different one? Thanks guys.

Have you put our a feeler for anyone with a similar unit? Might be a transducer? Maybe you can try another transducer. Are you just not getting a depth reading, or are you getting a blank screen?

Id check your wiring first (look at the terminals on BOTH ends, check for corrosion, wiring damage, etc).

If not wiring, buy a new transducer. The units themselves rarely malfunction, but often the transducer just gives up. Typically $45.
