Posts: 42 | I have a humminbird 788 ci on the bow of my boat connected to the trolling motor US2 transducer. Everything works great except for sonar and depth. The sonar screen is red and the depth usually reads 2.1 ft but every great once in awhile it will read the correct depth than go back to 2.1 ft. I thought maybe it was a transducer problem until I connected the brand new transducer that came with it and it did the same thing. Anybody have any ideas on what the problem could be? | ||

Location: Canada | BLIZZAK - 7/28/2014 8:19 PM I was getting interference noise off my power cable re routed transducer cable and mine was fixed Can you expand a bit on where/how the cables were routed before and after? I have a problem similar (red screen) to OP when I put my 787 in the bow. Works fine in the stern. My 580 works fine in the bow. The 787 works perfectly until I turn on the bowmount electric, then goes wonky (mostly all red). I tried putting an RF choke on the power cable to the head, made no diff. Would like to run both motor and and sonar off same battery if possible. | ||
