    DSI Fuzz when I step on the TM Pedal

    Hey all. So I've had this issue span across 2 units now. First on a HDI-7 (sent to Lowrance and they sent me a Hook 7- said there was an electrical issue), and now on my brand new Hook 7. Any time i step on my Minn Kota TM pedal, I get this feedback. The unit works fine otherwise. I have tried installing a ground cable and ferrite clip. Could it be the prop? Vibration somewhere? You can see the 3 bars below from where i step on the pedal

    My unit next to the troller does the same thing but not as obvious as yours. I tried everything you did but to no avail. I was told by a installer that some units are more sensitive than others and it is not as bad on the new trollers as it is on older models.

    Have you tried it using 455kHz for downscan? Is it just as bad?

    Try turning the sensitivity down a little. I have to run mine around 68 to 65 percent to clear it up a good.

    gonna have to install a trolling motor choke in your power wire that feeds your foot pedal to get rid of it.
