Hey guys,
This problem started a season or two ago and has now become very annoying. I have a Garmin 3006 plotter with GPS, radar & depth networked. I added another Garmin backup plotter with a 5" screen two years ago but don't recall the model number. The problem I am having is that when I'm under power, I lose my depth display! I'll be cruising along and all is well then "Poof", it just starts flashing the last depth it had read. This is also happening with the factory depth finder on the dash. Sometimes one works and the other doesn't & sometimes they both crap out. I generally try and run with only the Garmin powered as I was told the other may interfere with the signal. But, when the Garmin poops the bed, I go to the factory unit & then both are in because I'm still utilizing the GPS on the Garmin unit. Any idea where I should start my troubleshooting? Thanks in advance!
