Title: 1158c depth and 83hz went out in middle of lake
Post by: Muskyslayer96 on August 25, 2013, 08:04:49 AM
Hey fellas,

I have used this forum in the past for my 797Si and have received great help. I hope someone can answer my question regarding my 1158c that is connected via interlink to my 797Si.
I got out to the middle of the lake yesterday morning and the screen on my 1158c looked very weird. i usually have it on 83/200 hz and it was almost all white with thin broken up view of the bottom. I thought it might be covered with weeds but it was clear. when I was messing with it I could feel/hear it pulsing like my US2 does when out of the water. The bracket was a little loose but I started to lightly tap on it and that is when the depth went out on it as well! the depth would go in and out. My 797Si was fine (it uses the US2 on my Minnkota)

PLEASE HELP...its the second week in a row I've had boat issues and was not able to fish and the summer is flying by.

Thanks in advance for any help!

MS

Have you tried turning off the 797 to see if it was interferring? Which 1158c is it? 2d or DI?

I meant next time on the water, turn off the 797 and see if the 1158 works correctly. The 200/83 might be interferring with the other unit. You might have to set one unit to one freq and the other unit to the other frequency.
