The temp on my bow unit is showing as a very high temp for this time of year ~68 degrees. Does anyone know if there is a way to recalibrate it or is it likely a bad temp sensor on the transducer or similar? Transducer is mounted to trolling motor.

Anyone had a similar problem?

Thx, and Sticky Hooks,

Rob

There is an adjustment but not a calibration, it stays the same even after some time in the water? I know my black trolling motor gets hot in the sun and takes a good 20 minutes to cool down.

I had this happen on one of my hds live units. Lowrance replaced the unit and the temp corrected itself. Be sure to test in the garage out of the sunlight or it will show high if not in water.

It changes but is always between 65- 70. Oddest thing.

Try another head unit and check the temp on it. If it reads correct the problem is the head unit not the temp sensor. Good luck.
