sounder problem

[fish_hunter]

Last week I was running along the Rainbow Channel when my Lowrance x75 sounder failed. All power was lost. I replaced the fuse and this restored power but now the sounder will not switch off. I push the power off pad and it goes through the countdown and turns off but then about 3 seconds later restarts itself automatically. The only wasy I can turn it off is to pull out the power lead.

Any suggestions as to whow to fix this would be appreciated

Re: sounder problem

Your unit may be stuck in a software loop. You can E-Mail Lowrance and they can give you the buttons to push to do a hard reset. It will revert the unit back to its pre-installation settings but may cure the problem. The only other thing I can think of is the power button may be partially stuck in making the unit turn back on. You may want to ckeck it.

Re: sounder problem

This is what I was advised from Lowrance

"Thank you for the inquiry.

Try a system reset:

1. Turn unit OFF
2. Press and hold the PAGES key
3. Press and hold the PWR key
4. Release both buttons when the unit powers up
"
