First trip out with my new to me 998c and all was working great up until I got ready to head in. I got back to the console and noticed the SI and DI images weren't there anymore. I could see a faint line but the entire "picture" wasn't there. I have 2D sonar from the in-hull puck and GPS with my cards work great. For whatever reason the SI and DI images disappeared several hours into the day. They seemed to come back in a weird way when I was at a fast troll speed and the bow was up a little. When I got out of the water nothing looked different with the transducer or the angle at which it had been set. Could the transducer just have gone kaput? I'm using a Y-cable for the dual transducer and that is under the dash.

Did you put your hand on the transducer to see if the mount tripped?

I did check the transducer and it was still locked down in place. I know I didn't hit anything.

Disconnect the Y cable and plug the SI transducer directly to the display to find out if the Y cable, transducer, or unit is the issue. Do it on the water.

My 1199 did close to the same thing, I did a factory reset and it fixed it. Dang it I wish I had seen this before I went fishing this morning and I would have tried to see if it would work. I did try just the SI transducer without the Y-cable and it didn't work. ill see if I can hit the lake Monday and try that before I head up to OK next weekend. I also took a pic and I'll attach it when I get home so hopefully Wayne can chime in and help out.

Does anyone else have trouble posting pics direct from an iPhone? I would post them right now but I have to go in and download and blah blah blah. I haven't ever been able to directly post from my phone to this forum.
As far as software I don't have a blank SD card handy to update and it was supposed to have been done before I bought it.

iPhones don't take jpg. You have to convert to jpg by taking a screenshot, editing it, and posting it.

The error message says it's not in jpg or png and I thought the iPhone takes it in png?
Second, how do I know if the factory reset or hard boot happened? I had unit off held power button didn't do anything then I held it while unit was on and it didn't seem to do anything. Held for 15-25 seconds each time.

Held for 15-25 seconds each time. You do have a Humminbird unit???????? When your settings are changed from what you had, the unit has been restored to factory defaults. If you messed with the settings that turned off SI/DI, the Restore Defaults will fix that. The Restore Defaults setting is in the Setup menu. Has nothing to do with the power button.

Yes it's a Humminbird and I did the restore settings but I've also been led to believe that there is a hard boot that you can do, kind of like a soft reset on an iPhone. Kinda just clears the memory and stuff without screwing anything major up.

This is what the SI and DI are doing. I still need to go and check it out since I reset everything but does this look like it might be solve-able with a reset or does it look more like the 'ducer might have some issue? The 'ducer looked pretty much brand new when I got it.
