Last summer I bought a 2004 Lund 2025 that had a Lowrance LCX25C at the helm and a LMS-520C up front at the bow trolling motor. These units were hooked up when I bought the boat so I have no idea how it was wired. Both GPS antennas are Lowrance LGC-3000 models.
Late last summer I started getting a “No Signal Found” on the LCX-25C unit at the helm. Sometimes it would go away, sometimes it wouldn’t. Now I always get this message no matter how long I leave it on. Sonar still works fine.
The LMS-520C unit at the bow gave me the same message from time to time last summer but always seemed to connect after a couple power down/power up functions. Now this unit also gives the “No Signal Found” message probably 8 out of 10 times I power it up.
I have unscrewed the top covers off to make sure I wasn’t dealing with a loose wire or something like that. I have no knowledge really about installing, wireing or troubleshooting GPS units. Is it possible both of these tanked and need replacing? I am unsure what to try and where to start. I would rather not take it to the dealer because of the cost and I have been out of work for 7 months. Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated. If it would be easier to comunicate via phone I can be reached by phone @ (989) 859-9431.
Thanks in advance for your time and help.
