Top 20 Lowrance Lcx 27c 7" Gps Fish Finder Combo With Df Tm Transducer Questions & Answers

Here is the manual. Try page 212. Hope this helps.

Check the transducer for any damage on the front part. Also make sure there isn't any damage on the bottom of the boat that is causing air bubbles to cross the face of the transducer. If it works at slow speeds there is definitely something causing air bubbles.

I have a owners manual i can copy for you if you haven't found one yet. It old and but mostly legible Matt

Question edited for clarity. Make sure you got the correct transducer Your model comes in single frequency and dual frequency.

It is a known issue with that unit. https://www.google.com/search?q=Lowrance+HDS8+fishfinder+comes+on+and+then+shuts+off ..

Question edited for clarity. The first thing to check is the fuse to the unit. The could be a fuse block for accessories on the boat, or it could be an inline fuse to the unit itself or both. The pull all the plugs from the rear of the unit and check for corrosion. Spray with WD40 and replace the plugs carefully and tighten the fixing screws evenly. If that doesn't fix it, it may be the transducer, but you should still get a picture for chartplotting. There is no way to check them for correct operation, but try this https://sportfishingbuddy.com/how-to-tell-if-transducer-is-bad/ so if all that fails, you will need to return it for repair. There are some troubleshooting ideas here. This easy fix is on the Lowrance site *Screen goes dark?: If your display turns on, shows the blue Lowrance screen, and then goes completely dark, most likely you have accidently shut your backlight off while powering off your unit. To resolve this problem, once the unit is powered on and the screen is dark, simply press the "Power" button a few times until the screen brightens back up. Do not hold the "Power" button down, just quickly press and release the button. To prevent this from happening again, when powering off your display, simply press the "Power" button one time and then select "Power Off." This will save all settings and features and safely shut down your display. https://www.lowrance.com/help-and-support/?guideTitle=Display-Problems&guideId=003-043 https://www.google.com/search?q=lowrance+HDS+12+repair ..

The model Elite 5x from Lowrance is a bit out dated, I currently have one on my boat, That model would require GPS signal to be able to read MPH unfortunately it does not. Not sure if they made a GPS puck for that model. That wire lead set can and probably is being used on a few different models that support that function. Hope that helps.. BTW I have had mine since 2013 and still works great. There is a GPS speedometer available through LOWE boats with 4 INCH bezel. I am a LOWE boat dealer, General Manager at Beacon Marine in Junction City KS.

Reset use a soft reboot. Or hard reset make sure you back up all your settings on fish finder with chip or home computer. OK guys so the first thing you wanna do when resetting your unit whether it's soft reset or hard reset we're gonna start with a soft reset which is gonna save any GPS data anything like that so we're gonna head over hold the Power & Page button press the power button we're going to go over and press power button but I'm at the unit but up until you see the warning screen where you have to except the depth on reset Can see we still have our Saved waypoints. OK now I'm gonna show you how to do a hard reset again turn the unit off you should always use the power key never just flip the main power switch to off then press and hold the plus minus key as well as the power key let go of the power key keep holding plus minus until the warning screen comes up in a hard reset your going to delete all data on this year it's gonna be like we just bought it went to the store and bought it and cam home with know data whatsoever no settings nothing OK I warning screen has came up we can let go of her buttons and press except start demo. OK now I'm gonna show you how to do a hard reset again turn the unit off you should always use the power key never just flip the main power so that our unit is off then press and hold the plus & minus key as well as the power key don't let go with the power key holder plus minus until the warning screen comes up and a hard reset is going to delete all data on this year it's gonna be like-you just bought it went to the store and bought it and brought it home no data whatsoever no settings nothing OK or warning screen has came up we can let go over buttons and press except start demo now. OK so now you should not see any saved data so that's how you do a hard reset and a self reset. Load your Data card and shut off the power key. Then turn back on and follow screen steps. This should fix you issues. Walld"

Make sure the transducer is pointing directly down when the boat is in the water. Also, this may help

Contact supplier for support and possibly replacement for a faulty unit.

No, you need the correct transducer.

Once deleted, they are gone.

Probably time for a new one. Harsh conditions like on a boat causes the electronics to fail after awhile

Need to contact the manufacturer for support on this. It may not be fixable.

A transducer does not give "colors".. the unit its plugged into provides the colors.. 50khz for deep water.. 200khz for shallow water.. A transducer simply sends and receives signals to and from whatever is on the bottom of the lake...

Check the Positive and negitive terminals It may not be seeing the voltage it needs , I have a strike 7 and it did a similar thing , as soon as the load from the transducer is on it wont load ,, Mine was the dirty Neg cable to the bus bar under the dash

Wrong, if it was set-up properly it would not lose depth. Dealer is F.O.S., ... or incompetent!!
