Veryspeedy, get your boat to the dealer and tell them to get on the phone with a lady named Veronica with Ranger. She has no idea how much she improved my life. She knows the RIDE system inside and...
God speed. I have dealt with the same issues, but they finally got mine fixed. They put my graphs on a separate NMEA network and I have had zero issues since then.
Thanks guys. I can’t even believe it was error free all day. I almost didn’t know what to do at the bow. I normally would walk back and mute the alarm multiple times during the day.
Since I have been one of the biggest detractors of the RIDE system and my 520R, I wanted to give credit where credit is due.
Over the last 2 weeks, Dixie has had my boat once again (8th time in...
And I’ve learned if you have Humminbirds and use their GPS on the same NMEA network, it causes ALL KINDS OF PROBLEMS…
On my old 521 L, I mounted mine in the center rod locker on the floor of the compartment. I just drilled above the center top rod tube and fished it through there.
Love these.
While I’ve complained multiple times about my RIDE system, I finally have hope. I’ve received 2 calls from Ranger over the last two days telling me everything they are doing to fix my issues. Also,...
I’m going to follow up this post. Ranger contacted me today. They have their head of RIDE support working with Mark at Dixie. She told me today it would be fixed 100%. Obviously, that’s a good...
Mark is fantastic. Honestly, I was so happy I moved up here given the service. Beats the hell out of every other dealer I dealt with in Texas. Now the fishing, well it plain sucks.
I’m fine with the gas gauge being inaccurate to a point. Not working at all is my problem. The trim gauge not working at all is also a pain. It’s going back in tomorrow at 8. This will be the 6th...

They replaced the old unit, I’m still having issues. The trim gauge does work, the battery fob error on being close enough still exists, and the gas gauge doesn’t work accurately.
Hi JFB. Here are all the issues I've had with my Ranger 520R:
1. Dameron – J1939 Communication Lost;
2. GPS Fix Lost;
3. OP Box not found;
4. Low Battery Charge;
5. Transom Battery Gauge...
Good luck. The FOB has never powered down my boat. I have a low battery warning, FOB not in range, you name it. I wish I could offer some help, but my best advice would be to take it back to the...
I have 3 Apex 16” and a Garmin 8616. I run 2 125s in parallel. They will the boat for 21 hours, 26 if I put the graphs on standby at the console when I’m at the bow and standby at the bow when I’m...
Mine do the same thing. I tightened mine as indicated above and they still leak. You need new latches.
Trolling motor is on my boat in the shop, so I can't send pictures. I'll repost when I can. Please delete.
Why not just put it in the day box?
This is a 1.5 year old Minn Kota Ultrex 36V 112lbs 45” Mega SI/DI trolling motor that came with my 2022 Ranger 520R. I have installed the TH Marine Chill Trax Foot Pedal Pad in blue camo. I can...
RIDE has this integrated. Not needed. When you set up RIDE, you just have to specify Bobs or Atlas. Dealer does it…when you’re doesn’t work after the update, tell the dealer to update to the right...
My R had issues, but Ranger has made it right. I have zero complaints. Warranty extended to 5 years is tough to beat. That move alone sold me on Ranger (again).
I agree with this. In Texas, it was like the Dave Chapelle Show PopCopy skit. The Cabelas in Ft. Worth may have been the pinnacle of poor service.
I have an 8616xsv for my livescope, I also have 3 16” Apex. I have an Ultrex, but the Garmin is a better trolling motor, is lighter, and performs better. I’m thinking of dumping the Ultrex,...
I hate that this RIDE system has cost them sales. I first saw the R when they unveiled it in Fort Worth. The head of engineering was there and was answering questions. I asked him about the RIDE...
I’ve had only Ranger boats and have lived in 7 states, so I get a chance to interact and use multiple dealers, including a Cabela’s and a Bass Pro Shop. In my 49 years on this earth, I have never...
