Matrix 97 Software Update
Humminbird_Greg:
Okay Max, that was sort of what I was hoping for although it does mean that the voltage circuitry for the accessories (your GPS Receiver) has been damaged, A way around this is to power the GPS Receiver externally by wiring into a +12 volt and ground source on the boat. The +12-volts goes to the Red wire and the Ground goes to the Black wire. the Red wire between the connector and the point that you splice in the +12-volts needs to be cut so it does not feed into the unit, the Ground/Black wire should connect to both the unit and GPS Receiver. I would install a power switch and fuse (1-Amp is large enough) in line with the 12 volt connection. I hope that you understand the connections here. If you did, this should provide power to the GPS Receiver which will start sending the data to the Matrix 97 unit. Not pretty but it’s a possible way to get your GPS up and running. Otherwise you would have to send your Matrix 97 in to be serviced (if we still can) and it won’t be cheap to do so (you may be better off buying a new unit at that point).

Hello Greg,
latest update, Unit works again, it was not elcetricty problem with the cables. Our Tech changed the PINS
in the unit where you connect the GPS cable and perfect.
I think it was corrosion due to saltwater.
See ya
