Anyone with Humminbird Experience...? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I usually use a paper clip to clean out the female terminals on my fishfinder connection cable. There is usually one terminal that seems to be more corroded than the others.

btw, humminbird has a flat rate to fix stuff. call it in, theyll fix it for the flat rate, and you may just get a reconditioned unit.

I have seen this before with magnetic resonance, if the ducer is too close to the unit they can interfere with each other. also try coiling the extra cord in a coil and ziptie (usually instr with unit) or in a fig 8 pattern. Is it a thru hull or in the water, I forget, thru hull can cause reading errors too if gaps exist between ducer and yak.
