    Default Need help on Garmin Fishfinder


    I have a 93 SV UHD fish finder that I can’t figure out a problem I am having. On the screen it comes up Sonar Recording transducer not found. I know transducer is connected. I don’t know if I selected something accidentally but I can’t get it to go off. Any suggestions. I have put a picture below. Thanks in advance. Name:  IMG_5111.jpg

    There should be a tag near the plug of the transducer. Go in the menus and find transducer selection and be sure the correct transducer I’d is selected.

    As far as recording thing I haven’t ever seen that. Is this a new unit?

    What transducer do you have? If LS maybe you have selected the wrong one

    Check all your connections. I’ve had a bad connection before that I believe gave a message like that.

    Mine did that yesterday for the first time. Take it out of the cradle relock back in cradle and turn it back on fixed mine. A friend had that problem and ended up replacing the cradle because it had a bad plug.

    If problem is still there, call Garmin customer support. They have successfully assisted me with issues in the past. Good luck!
    Yes, as a matter of fact, I do have a retirement plan...FISHING!

    I have had it about 4 years and this is first time I have seen this and it did it a few days ago. I think it is reading the right transducer but I’ll check that out. Thanks

    It is a GT 54 and no live scope connected to it. It stands alone now. I have had it networked to another unit but it is not now. Thanks

    I think the connections are ok. I forgot to mention this only happens when it is on simulator. I was putting it in simulator to try some different settings and this popped up. Thanks

    Tried that and it didn’t change anything. I just used it on lake Thursday just find. This just comes up in simulator mode. Thanks
