I have old lowrance fish finder that is not workin its a X65 it powers up but only shows 0ft all the time the transducer is pluged in and looks ok , no cut wires ect . Do yoy know someone that works on them ?? thanks
Re: fish finder ?
Try jiggling the transducer plug where it goes into the unit. Maybe try some contact cleaner too. Cheap and easy first trouble shooting.

Transducer could still be bad, they are a common failure item.

If you can't get a new transducer I say junk it.

Re: fish finder ?
Yep, some transducers cost as much as the whole unit does.
