Installation Troubleshooting

Symptom

Possible Causes

The radar does 
not power on (no 
status LED).

• The power cable may not be connected correctly 

to the device or to the battery. Check all 
connections.

• The inline fuse may have blown. Check the fuse 

and replace it if necessary.

• The wire gauge used to extend the power cable 

may be too small for the length of the extension. 
Check the table provided in the Power Cable 
Extensions section of these instructions to make 
sure the correct wire gauge is used.

The radar is not 
available on the 
Garmin device or 
on devices 
connected to the 
Garmin Marine

• The device software may not be up-to-date. 

Update the software on the device or on the 
Garmin Marine Network.

• The network cable may not be connected 

correctly to the device or to the Garmin Marine 
Network. Check all connections.

• If a field-installable network connector was used, 

it may have been installed improperly. Check the
