First steps (you may have done done) check all wiring connections ,transducer, power,ext. at both ends. Attempt power up again. No change. Call 1-800-633-1468 with model & serial #'s. OR Disconnect all cable connections from unit and with a strip of aluminum foil short out all the connections on the 898c.(not the cable). Attempt power up again. If unit will let you go to 'System Status' screen & record. Hope your unit works.
its your back lighting try pushing your power button after unit starts up 3 times real quick see if that brings back lighting up some units have 3 light settings
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.
