However, I went out on Sunday in my Revo and ran into the same problem as some of the members are describing above - my FF read 0-ft from the time I launched to the time I got in. When I got home, I noticed the negative wire had worked itself loose from the male side of the perko deck connector. It was making a connection with a few strands of copper, but I am not sure if that was the problem? My revo transducer is gooped in and seems to in very well secure and I don’t want to yank it out and start over …that’s a big pain in the ass. I am curious if reduced voltage would cause the 0 ft reading? The GPS worked but not the FF!>>
