Had an electrical problem tonight,
fish finder came on for a second and then off every time I tried

to
start it up.


This is caused by LOW VOLTAGE being supplied to the unit. One of
two things causes it. Dead battery (due to no charging from the
motor, usually)...or...resistance between the battery and sonar
(corroded connections, too small wire, loose connections).
