Lowrance hook 7 transducer issues.
I can power it back up and same thing happens on for.
Hook reveal new hook.
I have a nearly brand new 20 hours lowrance hook 7 that is intermittently losing bottom no depth reading.
Inspect the transducer for signs of damage or paint coating.
The company also has a model that is designed exclusively for the needs of ice fishermen.
Now for some reason it will only stay on for a few minutes and then turns itself off.
Small voids and air bubbles in the paint reduce sensitivity.
I hooked it up to its own battery and i am using the transducer in my mg xi5.
I do not have access to another lowrance unit to try and isolate the problem to the transducer.
All tests should be conducted in a lake pond river or sea.
Lowrance manufactures high definition full sized compact and portable sonar units also called depth finders and fish finders.
Don t apply antifouling paint to the transducer surface.
