    Default Problem with Lowrance HDS8


    Does anyone know what is causing the white background to turn to grey? The map card is Navionics. This just started recently.

    First turn your unit on let it boot up then push pwr to turn off see if the nighview is on? Second go to your chart page on chart options and see if you did something by mistake to change the colors on your mapping. EB

    If you do this, make sure you transfer your coords onto an SD card, or mini SD, whichever your unit uses.

    Saved waypoints, routes and trails to SD Card then did a factory reboot. Everything seems to be working now. Thanks for everyone's help......dave
