Thread: humminbird 898c question

no, I did not make any changes, im not tec savvy so I tend to stay away from all that. the other thing is I have a lakemaster chip but Im not getting any mapping of any kind. seems like the transducer is working good as far as other wires chewed up, getting down and side image and regular sonar.

If you’re not getting map views at all (only getting Sonar views) - the unit is not recognizing the GPS antenna (898 does not have built in GPS option at all) = test your unit on another GPS antenna ...

If you’re getting map views but with no contour lines - the card slot is bad or the map card is bad ...

Which scenario above is your issue ...??

Then for sure the unit is not recognizing the GPS antenna ...
