My lowrance dsi stop working

If your Lowrance Mark 5x DSi won't power up, there are a few things you can try:

1. Check the power source: Make sure the unit is properly connected to a power source that is providing the correct voltage. Check the power cable and connections for any damage or loose connections.
2. Check the fuses: The Mark 5x DSi has a fuse on the back of the unit. Check to make sure it hasn't blown. If it has, replace it with a new fuse of the same amperage.
3. Reset the unit: Try resetting the unit by pressing and holding the power button for 10-15 seconds. This will force the unit to shut down and reset.
4. Check for water damage: If the unit has been exposed to water or moisture, it may be damaged. Check for any signs of water damage, such as corrosion on the connectors or internal components.

If none of these solutions work, it may be necessary to take the unit to a professional for repair or replacement.

Hey Ken, My unit did this same thing.. I unplugged all the connections, replugged them and it has worked fine ever since??? ..just my personal experience...

I THINK what you're running into here is a poor power connection. (either positive or ground) It would appear to me that as the connection heats up, it is unable to carry the amperage needed to keep the unit running.

Carefully inspect, clean and lubricate with silicone spray the connections, (pay particular attention to the terminals at the power supply AND the fuse holder.)

Hope this is helpful.

Install the battery cables to the battery for the gas motor.

Here is a transducer installation guide for Lowrance, this is pretty standard for all transducers. Pay attention to how the boat sits in the water when trolling for level setting to match in water.

Contact the Lowrance company directly on the internet and check with their experts! Nautical equipment is very fussy about its compatabilities.

DS, DSi and DSiXL have the same game (cartridge)
