Prior to lunching today, I powered the unit on and all seemed well. Once I made it past the surf, I pulled my FF and mount out of the hull storage and mounted it in the scotty mount...I though all was well until I powered it on and the mother effer powered right off again. I tried tightening the connections, ensured the power connection was clean, connected, and snug...regardless of what I did, the issue persisted.
Could it be an issue with wiring? Do I just have bad luck and got another effed unit? The last three numbers of the first unit's SN was 666, it may be a sign that the Elite-4 isnt for me.   |
Post up if you find out what the problem is. I was having the same problem with my Elite 5 last weekend. It would power down every 15 minutes or so. I though it was maybe a battery or connection problem, but the battery checked out fine and all the connections and wiring looked good. If it happens again I'll be sending mine in under warranty.
