    Motorguide Xi5 issue

    I bought this trolling motor on a used boat and have not been able to get the Anchor Mode to work. I have the GPS light on and when I hit the anchor button it makes an error tone.

    I have tried to calibrate the GPS with M+1,1,1 and it also will make an error tone. I even tried reverting back to factory settings and am getting a single small beep.

    I called Motorguide and they want me to bring it in to a service center that is over 100 miles away for troubleshooting. They think it is the GPS module but I was told by the dealership I bought it from that the GPS Module was changed out by them. It does have the latest software

    Any ideas on where to go? Should I just sell it?

    Call MotorGuide back and ask them to send you the pig tail Software up date.
