Fishrman Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 My hds7 acted funny today never had screen do this. Ahh help appreciated.
J-Doc Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 First image may be random anomoly. Second image, did you trim motor any when the vertical lines appeared? Mine will do that if I trim the motor.

Fishrman Posted January 4, 2015 Author Posted January 4, 2015 My concern on second picture is the green on the bottom
Fishrman Posted January 4, 2015 Author Posted January 4, 2015 Also you can see difference on colour of bottom my dash unit shows bottom as black all the time, something not right on it can't figure it out yet. These are from my bow unit vertical lines were from trolling motor
J-Doc Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Depending on what color palette you have your settings tuned to, I'd say that was a very hard bottom. I've seen it before. On this color palette, the bottom is typically brown but when you find a rock bottom or boulder, it will show green. Need marine repair? Send our own forum friend "fishinwrench" a message.

J-Doc Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Ah. The black bottom and multi layer probably means you need a new transducer. If you can swap units, you can test and confirm. If they are mounted in the boat, that's tougher. Might try pulling them to see for sure. A new transducer is about $80-100. My trolling motor transducer went out and did the same thing. Same type image. Replaced it and it was fine. Call Lowrance and talk to a tech support. They might be able to help. Not sure. I usually know more than they do when I call. lol!! Not trying to sou d like a know it all, just saying they have not always helped me in the past. But it's worth a try. Need marine repair? Send our own forum friend "fishinwrench" a message.

Bill Babler Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 On the first shot the contour break might have caused it, I have seen that before, but usually a zoom in or zoom out will knock that out. I have never seen the green screen but has been mentioned it could be a color deal. I will text Rick Lisek and have him look at your shots and he will know he is Lowrance top pro-staff guy here. http://whiteriveroutfitters.com http://whiteriverlodgebb.com
