Navionics Gold in Humm 798ci problem
Submitted by crasny1 on Sat, 2012-06-02 09:57
Hi guys
Yesterday went out and the Plotter suddenly defaulted to an auto map function, which I suspect is the basic map in the unit. Showed no nav markers or underwater structure/contours, and was as usefull as a nun at a party.
Question is do the Navionics Cards fail, should I get a new one, should I swap the storage card and nav card to other slot (ie swap them over) etc.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers

Ill do that. Didnt do it on the boat because I am blind as a bat reading wise and it was dark. Didnt want to root the whole kit but will give that a go.

Needs do you have the lock
Needs do you have the lock out tab engaged on the card. I've got a998 and have the tab out so no info gets recorded on to it.

By the way, above trick appears to have worked.
