Wire a lowrance elite 5
Lowrance has started using the same power cord on their Elite units and their HDS units. The yellow wire on the power cable is an accessory wake up wire designed to be used in conjunction with the structure scan modules for the HDS.
You can simply tape this wire off during your installation ND ignore it.
My lowrance elite 5m hd wont turn on
It's either a software or processor malfunction. Make Lowrance fix it or make it right by you. 3 in a row all with the same issue means they have a major issue they need to resolve.
Don't take no for an answer. I've seen recurrent problems through the last couple of generations of mid priced 4" & 5" systems.
Lowrance troubleshooting
Pay attention if depth readings shift during times when moving from spot to spot at higher speeds. If this is the case then you have air bubbles disrupting your sonar signal causing inaccurate readings or a loss of bottom lock for the unit. If over this weeds in shallow water, this at times creates havoc with sonar readings because of the wide variance of signal returns.
check the voltage at the head unit.You should have a minimum of 11.7 volts. 12.5 to 13.5 is optimal
lower power input can affect the overall performance of your unit.
My elite 5dsi wont power up
If your battery voltage is down around 10 volts the unit won't power up. Also check your in line fuse. There should be a 3 amp 250 volt in line fuse on your red power line double check to be sure the fuse is intact. Of course check all connections and connectors to ensure they are all still in place.
