    Default Sideview inop when I have trolling motor on


    Sideview shows below when I have trolling motor on. the clearview of it is when I turned if off briefly. The only thing now is they are connected to the same battery.

    What can I do?

    To start I would probably get the Garmin on a separate power source, just temporary it with open wiring to see what that does, if it dont help nothing cost except a few minutes temping the garmin

    Don't hold me to this but I think the boat has a minimum speed it has to be going in order for sideview to work. I'm sure someone more knowledgeable will chime in.

    Was originally on different battery but Garmin recommended me to remove from starter and put on the deep cycle. It didn’t have an issue before

    Side view works perfectly if the trolling motor is turned off. And correct the trolling motor is at the front of the boat while transducer is at the stern

    It is not uncommon for interference to be present if the electronics unit and the trolling motor share the same battery ...

    Add a dedicated battery for the electronics ...

    Mainly side view as it’s unusable. The down is little messed up but slightly degraded

    Garmin was wrong. Nothing (especially electronics) should be on the TM battery but the TM.
