piranha max

[offdahook]

I have a Hummingbird PiranhaMAX 153, no matter what dept of water it constantly shows 3-4ft. Every lake can't be 3-4 feet. Anyone have any input on what I am doing wrong?

Can you post a pic of your transducer install...??

I can try. It had another fish finder on the boat when I got it 10 years ago and it worked great. When it finally died I went and got the new one. I just put the new transducer in the same spot, ran the wires, and turned it on. It showed 3 feet out of the water. I ran the simulator, played with it, it did beep on time and showed a fish or two. It shows the temp.

What does this mean ....??
It showed 3 feet out of the water

(Sonar will not read thru air...)

Is the unit showing 3-4 ft while in the water ...no matter the actual water depth...??

If boat is in water and reading like that, you either have a bad connection, bad cable or bad ducer. If out ov water that's all your going to get.

Thanks, I will check all the connections

One of mine has the option to use two different frequency transducers in the setup menu. When I screwed it up once, that's what happened to me.
