Lowrance HDS 7 won't power up - 09/11/19 03:55 PM

My 2 year old Lowance would not turn on a few days ago. Inline fuse was good but I replaced it just in case. Still nothing.

Anything I should try before I spend 45 minutes on the phone with Lowrance?

Thanks.

It happened to me once!These things require serious battery voltage make sure your battery is fully charged and another thing: you may have done this by accident: make sure you haven`t accidently touched your brightness /dimness key on your screen before you turned it off.It could be on and you just don`t know it.

It fired up when I got home today. I didn't do anything. I hope this is not a sign of things to come.

Maybe it’s a good sign.
