Lowerance x65 problems

[bje]

I have one that does the exact same thing. Mine will also cut out in deeper water when I run the trolling motor. Thanks for the post, I thought I just had a bad unit, it appears there may be more out there with this model. I had an Eagle on my old boat that worked far better.

Eagle is made by Lowrance, I've have both and did recently send a X135 Lowrance back to them and they sent me a new one that works great. However after reading all of this, I guess they are having some problems. I need to reconsider buying the 337 gps Lowrance I had planned on buying.

Anybody know much about Garmin fishfinders with gps?

I found the problem on my x65. The 3 amp fuse holder is bad. Its spring loaded so as the spring wears out it doesn't make contact as well. I replaced it and it works great. Maybe you all should check this too. Its a red fuse holder on the power cable. Hope this helps.
