Anyone have suggestions for how to eliminate the electrical interference that my trolling motor causes on the bow mounted sonar? They are on separate electrical systems. Every time I run the trolling motor the sonar screen goes black, even at relatively low speed settings.
Trolling motor is a Motorguide 767 and runs off its own 24 volt system. Sonar is a Lowrance LCX-19C and runs off the 12 volt battery for the main motor. The transducer is mounted on the foot of the trolling motor and transducer cable is routed up on the outside of the trolling motor shaft. Transducer cable has no nicks or cuts in the insulation.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
