    The bottom won’t stay still. Is a almost new i just got it couple weeks ago
    Battire is charged all conections are good. The display looks like u r lifting the transducer up n down constantly Very annoying Dose it in simulator mode too. Any one else have this problem if so what was the fix?

    Sounds like auto zoom or bottom lock is catching different hard objects and bouncing around! Try adjusting the gain down a little next time. Or it may be a transducer on the fritz.

    If you can take it back to where you bought it I would do that first , Otherwise sounds like somthing that will need to be sent in to Marcum. If you go the second route go on to their website under support section.

    Then it’s not the transducer.

    In fact if I’m not mistaken that’s just a program running.

    Check your battery with a volt meter for 12.8 v. If you’re good there, check with the retailer or Marcum.

    Motor problem perhaps. That’s what they said about mine. If you have the receipt I’d just take it back and get a different one.

    Glad to hear you got it fixed Tony.

    I had this same problem with my LX-5. I had to send it in. I think they recalibrated something. Had it back in a few days.
