Check to make sure the transducer is hooked up correctly, and check the actual transducer for signs of damage. Transducers are fragile, and a good whack can break the crystal inside. For more troubleshooting, here is a helpful link with the Owners Manual for your Humminbird.

Why does my fish finder sieze up when i start my boat?

it seizes up because their is a very hi draw on your battery when the motor is turning over, the starter draws so much power from the battery that it drops the voltage down below what the depth finder needs

Yes... or it is unplugged... or the wire is broken...

This could be a lot of things. The unit employs multiple signals to gather data and it could be the transponder not getting the signal or it could be something simple like the sensitivity. Humminbird 757c Operation Manual Sensitivity

Can not get off simulate

Assuming you're talking about a Depth Finder or a GPS... if it's depth finder, I had a similar problem on a Humminbird Depth Finder... the issue was holding down the power button too long. If you push it long enough for the system to light up and let go, it should solve the problem. Holding it down longer takes it into Simulation. Hope that helps.

Depth finder comes on then goes off

It sounds like some power saver feature on the battery or in the unit. Check with hummingbird, they should have an 800#.
