5s radar scanner

Jim,

The radar cable test measures resistance. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing this subject. Should the radar cable testing not identify any problems with the cable, then it would be recommended that the vessel be connected to shore power, that its batteries be permitted to fully charge, and that while still connected to shore power that the radar then tested. Should the radar not function properly and should it be configured to operate within its default Gain and Tune settings, then it may well indicate a failure within the radar pedestal's circuitry. Unfortunately, Raymarine can no longer provide parts and service for this generation radomes and open array pedestals. However, depending upon the model of display that the pedestal has been interfaced to (please respond accordingly), there may be a possibility to replace the pedestal with a HD or Super HD Open Array Pedestal.
