    Lowrance 3500- won't pick up satelites

    Hi Guys,
    Just had a new 3500 globalmap fitted and will not pick up satelites . Lowrance believe that the problem is the 60 ohm connector and are apparently sending me a new one today. Has anybody had the same problem with this unit, if so it would be handy to know.

    Thanks,
    Greg

    Yep, I've had one straight out of the box do it. In my case it turned out to be the receiver. Lowrance replaced under warranty with no problem at all.

    Had two at work last week. It is the return power connector that goes in the end of the T junction box.

    had the same thing happen to me.
    1st off it was the switch on the unit or so they tell me.
    got the new unit still would not work rewired it and found one of the fuses was only giving 3 volts to the gps modual.
    so do they even look at it or just replace them?
    all good fixed now
