WiFish loses connection w/transducer

[Don G Baldi]

I have a WiFish installed that works great in demo mode. I can turn it on when the boat is in my garage and watch it flow on my phone in the living room. However, when in the water it will flow for about a minute and then warn that it can't find the transducer - or similar wording. So reboot, try again with same result.

The only thing different than an out of the box install was to add an extension to the transducer cord. The cord was way to short to make it from the transom to helm on my 20' boat. The extension is the appropriate RayMarine extension for the WiFish. The locking ring is fully engaged. I hope I won't need to relocate the unit near the transom so the extension isn't needed.

Any ideas are welcomed.
