Humminbird Blue Screen

[Nightprowler]

I got a Humminbird 727 and a 565 depth finder. The 727 has started getting a blue screen when it is turned on (but not always). I can see the start up menu and it working faintly in the background, but the blue screen covers it. I can turn it off and back on a few times and it will work fine. Both units interchange bases, so I know its in the head unit of the 727. Anybody had this happen and what can I try before sending more cash to Humminbird?

Does anybody know if there is a Humminbird Rep that trolls this form?

Yes but I think you need to post this over in the Electronics forum. I see Joey in there frequently.

but "trolling" IS allowed :p

PM Humminbird Greg ... he should be able to figure out what's happening.

I changed batteries and tightened the connections and it seems to correct the problem for now. My 565 didn't have the problem.

i'v been in the market for a 565, did you like that finder , and is it as cleat as they say it is?

The Humminbird 565 works great! The 727 has gps and the same features as the 565. The bases interchange also.
