    93sv UHD side imaging black

    Think my transducer went bad. On the water yesterday and all good. Moved to another location to side scan and screen was basically black on 1120 freq. if turned contrast and Brightness to max I could get some data to barely show. Drop freq to 455 and with max brightness and contrast I finally get a somewhat side imaging view with center line but zero detail.

    Traditional sonar appears to be fine. Done a system reset and no change. Thinking I lost my side scanning part of the transducer? Anyone else had this happen?

    I had similar problems too deep of water and distance too high was my problem. It only did it on high frequency. Garmin replaced my transducer but it wasn't the problem.
