Congrats on the new toy! I have the glass Tyee186 with a 175 vrod. It’s a 3 blade 19P if I remember correctly. My hole shot is a bit slow compared to some others, but I can pull skiers or tubers just fine. I also do 52ish across the lake when I feel the need! the smartcraft gauges are sweet too if you get those. i can troll under 2mph depending on wind direction. gph is nice too. usually cruise around 35 at 8gph. the 52 turns it into 18gph really quickly though.

I checked the switch at the bow, and it’s working (ohm checks at least). I looked under the dash, but couldn’t find the wires. i didn’t cut any of the zip ties though so they could have been hidden. could it go to the throttle? I did also find the wires going to the motor and they don’t run that far.

I have a 38 & a 520 networked to one antenna and had the same issue. I went thru 2 antennas then found the problem. The installer powered the antenna from both units and they should have only powered it from one unit. Basically there are 2 power connections for each unit. One powers the head unit, the other powers the antenna. When the system is networked, unit 1 should be powered and send power to the antenna. unit 2 should just have power to the unit. i think lowrance changed this for the new units though. i too had to wait an hour each time i tried to contact lowrance. once you get thru they’re pretty helpful, but waiting on hold that long it frustrating.
