I Need the forums help with troubleshooting a problem with a Lowrance GPS 5200 Global and an Evenrude digital guage that depend on a GPS signal.
INFO I HAVE GATHERED SO FAR:
1. I have followed the Lowrance proceedure to unlock the 5200, with no change in the situation.
2. When I turn off power to the GPS antenna I receive a message on the Lowrance screen, that it is not receiving a signal from the antenna. From that, I presume the antenna signal is traveling thru the network to the 5200.
3. In addition, I have a 2008 115HP evenrude with digital guages. The digital ground speed readout depends on a GPS signal and is connected via the central network system. The ground speed indicator stopped giving me readout, at the same time the 5200 failed, but all other Evenrude guages on the network are still working.
With this limited informatin, can anyone tell me what might cause this problem and what I might do to correct it myself?
Thanks in advance for your help.
