Not getting any side /down scan. Everything on graph is working. All settings are correct. Have sonar and all. Just have black screens on both si/di both with white lines. Any suggestions ?

Have you restored defaults? Make sure the transducer is plugged all the way in. Make sure the depth range is set deeper than the water you are in. Are you using a y cable for the transducers?

Have the SI and DI ever worked properly? Which transducer do you have connected to the unit?

Everything has worked in the past. No y cable. And I did the default and transducer is plugged in correctly

The SI and DI use the same transducer elements (different than the 2D sonar), so it sounds like it might be a transducer problem.
