Zercom flasher in 2001 Javelin

I ahve a 2001 Zercom flasher and while on the water this morning it started acting funny. First run I press the suppression button and it works fine. The second run is when it went crazy. I turned my power on and turned on the flasher and the sensitivity started counting down to zero almost like the button to lower the sensitivity was stuck. I can hold the button to raise sensitivity and it will go up but as soon as I let off that button it starts counting back down again. Any suggestions? Thanks for any advice in advance.

try contacting at this email they fixed my same flasher back in the fall my circuit board went out..humminbird/zercom

I will give them a shot.

I have the same exact flasher as you do. I had a similar problem with mine but I was able to fix it. My power button was stuck in the on position so I just went under the dash and cut the wire and put a toggle switch on the hot wire so I could cut the power off before it gets to the unit. I know that wont help your problem. My button only sticks in warm weather never happens in the cold http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eyes.gif I am not a real big fan of push button controls any more. Some boat manufactures have a push button starter button. How would you like for one of those to stick http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/mad.gif

Yeah I know what you mean. I am still waiting on customer service to e-mail me back so maybe I will hear from them before to long.

They will probably have you send it in and you will have to pay a flat fee of $75-$85 to have it refurbished. Comes back looking like brand new. Mine had problems and thats what I had to do.

Yeah I called and htats what they said send it back and they will repair it. I guess thats better than buying a new one.

it'll be like new again with a warranty like 60-90 days,that's what i got with mine when it was returned..

hey guys with a Zercom flasher made by Hummingbird......can you swap a graph and a flasher out but still use the transducer that the flasher used ?? or are they incompatible??
