I bought a used boat that has a Lowrance LC X-15 MT. The unit has two trays for SD cards. The unit will work off of its base map. When I put a card in the tray, the base map cuts off and a messag that says "GPS module not responding".
I do not get a manual with this unit so I have to come to my fellow TTF memebers for help. Going to Lowrance is just about useless.
Also, if I ever do get the unit to read an SD card, how do you direct the unit to use the "A" slot card or the "B" slot card?

I have a NAVIONICS CLASSIC HOTMAPS NE/CLAS-S SOUTH that I used on the same unit you have.
If you want it, make me an offer or a trade.
Also, here's a stupid question: Do you have the unit connected to a GPS antenna?

I have the 15mt and it states GPS module not responding although it is plugged in so most lkely a bad antennae. I called Lowrance and they said that old unit (2002) wont take a mmc chip bigger then 512mg. If your chip is a 1 gig etc the unit will not read it and should cycle on and off.

I just got off the phone with Lowrance. Although my Premium map is only 512mb, it will not work; only a Classic map will work.
