Anyone have an issue with a dead spot on the Livescope and it won't read the full range? I tried cleaning the transducer with no luck. I adjusted the range also, it didn't fix it.

Is your orientation set manually or auto? Either way it looks like you transducer is not rotated to the incorrect position or the graph is set to the wrong view. If that doesn't work I'm not sure

I’d say post a picture of your transducer.

Looks like transducer went bad. I had the same problem. Hopefully it’s under warranty

Depending on how you stow the trolling motor, your TD orientation needs to be move one click up or down. I can tell you by the picture it’s off. The bottom edge of TD need to be flat or move 1 click up. If that makes sense.

Thanks. Yep, I have tried at all angles and the black gap is still at the end of the range.

Is this the first time you’ve used it?

No. I have been using it over a year. It worked fine the last time I went out. Then yesterday, this began.

Then maybe Mr. Biggs comment above is correct. Might have gone bad.

your transducer is set wrong. One more click up...
