Assuming you have the right magnetron for the right model radar, you desolder the two leads, remove the 4 or 6 mounting screws and reverse the process for the new maggie. Let radar run in standby for 30 minutes before going to transmit. Most Furuno radars have auto-tune and will tune itself to new magnetron.

No data at >1 mile

Either a weak magnetron, water in wave guide or most likely radar settings are not right.
You have an 1834C, so a 4KW dome, right?
Radar antenna should be set to type "B" in Radar Set-Up menu
Access this menu by holding the Menu button during turn on and then choosing Installation Mode, allowing access to Installation Set Up Menu, where the Radar Set Up Menu is located. Be sure to do Optimize Radar, while you are in there.
Learn to use Sea Clutter and turn off AC Auto Tune.
Good Luck!

Our Radar Furuno 1715-24NM On. ( Power in Oke ) but can not show drawing in monitor/lcd. thanks. regard - damanik

If you have no radar targets, go to longest range 24 miles, gain full, rain and sea minimum, do you have noise, if so, need magnetron, if not, need cable from display to dome.

Hi, Furuno 1731 radar - no sweep/echo seen on screen. Scanner is rotating and other display is normal.

Go to longest range and full Gain min Rain and Sea Clutter
Do you have speckle? Yes = Receive OK, Wiring OK,No transmit (magnetron or modulator) No = Most likely a broken wire
There is a very tiny coax (shielded wire) that is know to lose its' center conductor, which is very delicate

Furuno radar 1621 do not show targets

You may have a faulty magnetron or one that has gotten old. They do have a life. Find out how many hours you have on the unit and give furuno a call. They will more than likely tell you what they think the problem is.
