Elite 7 HDI problems

I asked this question on another forum, I'm hoping to get some answers from you guys as well.

I bought a new Lowrance Elite 7 HDI with latest update(1.8). Unit will not turn on with navionics gold card inserted. If card is removed, then the unit turns on immediately. If card is reinserted then the map shown is very basic, almost no detail and only a portion of it is displayed.

Has anyone else had this problem? Does the card need to be updated? any help is appreciate it.

Have you tried to update that card?? If so here in lies your problem. Call Navionics and have them help you, took me almost an hour but it worked. Problem is in the card, mine did the exact same thing.

I haven't tried to update the card yet. What did navionics recommend to you?
Thanks for the feedback.

Navionics had me remove something, a file, that was on the card then update it. Might try updating it, very well may fix it.

I will. Thank you.
