First steps (you may have done done) check all wiring connections ,transducer, power,ext. at both ends. Attempt power up again. No change. Call 1-800-633-1468 with model & serial #'s. OR Disconnect all cable connections from unit and with a strip of aluminum foil short out all the connections on the 898c.(not the cable). Attempt power up again. If unit will let you go to 'System Status' screen & record. Hope your unit works.

Why does my 898c always say low voltage on the screen

Hello
Check the input voltage to this device. To work properly without any error, the input voltage at load condition [Switch ON condition] should be more than 11.7VDC. If this voltage drops from this threshold, the unit will display 'Low Voltage"
The fault is nothing but with its input voltage itself. OK.
