I hope this helps!

First check if there is an on/off switch. If still no joy, it is a job for an electronics expert. Take it to your local Marine Outlet and they should be able to get it fixed quickly and at a reasonable cost.

Here is a manual for it. http://www.lowrance.com/upload/Lowrance/Documents/Manuals/x136df_0151-171_112003.pdf ,

Take it to a major marine outlet, they generally have access to experts who fix this type of equipment

You can get the manual on the link below.

As long as the connection is the same.....maybe. The difference will be the angle of beam from boat to bottom. May not cover the same area...or you could loose zoom etc. something will be different.

I have this exact same problem with my unit. I just started doing this and I have no solution yet.

When you ask for help, give make and model number. In this case, if display is a CRT type (cathode ray tube, not LCD), then a horizontal single line in the center of the screen indicates a lack of vertical deflection. If it is a vertical line in the center of the screen, it is a lack of horizontal deflection. Both problems can be caused by any number of components, all internal, and requires a technican to repair. Lowrance has a fixed fee system for their factory repairs. See their online info for support: http://www.lowrance.com/en/Support/Service-Information/Service-Rates/

Yes quite possibly... But a few things to try/check first before you go out and get a new transducer...

1. Ensure the transducer is fully submersed below the waterline when floating and when on the plane... try lowering it more if you can.
2. Check the surface of the transducer itself (the underside) pointing down... If there are any minor scratches or scuffs, this can effect its function or performance. Minor scratches or marks can be sanded out with fine wet/dry sandpaper (at least 400 or 800 grit).
3. Isolate any electrical wires running near or next to the transducer cable. Also check connection of cable at head unit, and that the pins etc are clean, free of corrosion and making good contact.
4. Take your head unit to your Lowrance dealer and they may have a transducer there to use to diagnose whether it is indeed the trasnducer or a problem with the head unit.

Good luck!

Hi- I have a 1996 Four winns boat with the same problem. I believe we are missing an adapter cable which goes from the depth cable to the instrument panel. I have not been able to locate this cable yet. If I find it I will let you know and can you do the same for me if you locate one?

have you updated the device... this sometimes sorts out issues

i will have the reset precedure soon but a basic reset can be accomplished by removing power to the device for about 15 minutes

you may have to do some searching on the site to find a service location near you.

Does this occur at any depths...over 20ft even.

The X510c will have problems keeping depth in shallow water...especially if it is muddy, weedy down there.

If the problem occurs even in depth over 20ft, then try resetting the unit:

1. Turn unit off
2. Press and hold ZIN, ZOUT, and PWR until you see the depth (flashing or not) in the top left corner.

If the problem still occurs, make sure the transducer is clean and still mounted so that it is sending the signal straight down to the bottom.

If the problem still occurs, make sure the power is good. You can have the voltage displayed on the screen through the overlay data menu.

Does the problem occur at any speed? If the problem clears up when you stop or slow down, the problem is due to cavitation and the transducer will need to be moved to a location where it is in a smooth flow of water at all speeds.

If none of this helps, there may be a malfunction with the X510c. You can try to update it but you will need to get the software update from someone at Lowrance support and then find a way to connect your X510c to a Lowrance unit that has a memory card slot via a NMEA 2000 network. I can help you with this if you need.

Other than that you can have the X510c returned to the factory for service.

Plug it in. Is there a green or red light on the iWay 350? If red, it will probably turn on now while plugged in and just needs to be charged. If it won't charge, it is malfunctioning. If no lights come on when plugged in, the 350 is malfunctioning.

Does the green light come on the cigarette lighter adapter? If not, the fuse in the cig adapter is blown or the power cable needs to be replaced.

CLICK HERE for the 332C manual if you do not have it.

It has been my experience that if not married properly - the transducer and cable can become breached - and water enters the connection and starts the corrosion process.

Have a good search for the transducer.

If you have a trolling motor installed - look down near the prop -



some even have them built -in! You'll have to trace down the wire when its on the trailer out of the water.

Sometimes a sensitivity adjustment can be made and it will solve the problem.

Many times there will be an object - like glass or metal that will deflect the sonar and make it act up.

If you are getting it only occasionally - i would suspect debris on the bottom - if the range is out consistently - the transducer is at fault. There are many places to mount it - so tracking it down will fall on your shoulders :D

Your 332C can only translate the info it gets from the transducer - so you're on the right track. Locating it, and testing the connection and wires is the next step. If you cannot locate it - you may just opt to purchasing another - and mounting it yourself to save the labor cost of someone else doing it - and you'll be problem-free for quite a while.


Thanks for using FixYa!!

Try hard reset?

Hello al56-mueller, I searched the same areas I'm sure you have and the only one thats verbal is a dealer. Merry Christmas.

cut the wire and re connect with crimp connectors and then seal withe heat shring tubing and a heat gun (put the tubing in first) or you could solder the ends together and heat shrink tubing over the individual wires. So long as you have a good water tight connection ther should be no adverse affects to your equipment.
