Temp gage on FF screwed up.

FXRScotty · 07-09-2009, 11:36 PM

The temp gage is acting up on the old furuno. I noticed this last trip that the temp was reading 99.9 at start up and I'm pretty sure that ain't right here in the bay of Maine

It does slowly drop as time goes by to the 70"s which I still ain't buying. Any ideas??

Bad temp sensor in the transducer.

2 choices:

Live with it.

Buy a new transducer.

Don't ask me how I know.
