I have a new Lowrance hook 2 7x thats on the fritz. It randomly loses bottom says I'm in shallow water and the sonar stops scrolling for minutes at a time. I've checked the transducer, no scrathches kinks or frays in the cable, I've reset it multiple times and sometimes it boots back up and reads fine but after a couple minutes the bottom signal gets weaker and weaker. its been on my boat since July and for the first two months had no issues at all. Does anyone have any ideas on what could be wrong, or had a similar situation? My only thought is maybe its not getting enough voltage, but everything else on the boat is working fine. Any help would be great Thanks!
I own a 9" Hook 2 and never had that issue although plenty people have. The issue I get is after a few hours of running, my unit starts to stall and freeze up. I unplug it and plug it back in and it works just fine. Maybe its time for another unit. Any recommendations? I would like at least a 9" screen.
