X67c wont shut off
« on: Dec 30, 2012, 06:35 PM »
 Just charged the battery and fired up my new x67c. For some reason it wont shut off. It is off when i connect the battery,but as soon as i turn it on it wont power down.  Ive googled and searched every place i can think of and still no help.  Everthing else seems to work on the unit. I can add a toggle switch but would rather be able to shut it off on the machine. Any help is appreciated.

Hard Reset:
1. Press and hold the down arrow key.
2. Press power, unit will enter production test mode.
3. Press exit key 5 times.
4. press ENTER and unit will shut off.

disconnect the batteries....then check it again, although I guess you probably already tried that.

I had the exact same problem on mine and I beleive its a hardware issue. Everything worked fine just wouldnt power down and stay off. I tried everything and same results.  In the end I just power it off then un hook the power for 5 sec. and it will stay off.

Sounds like its time to contact Lowrance and/or have the unit exchanged.  I have an Elite 4X with the ice kit which I have yet to use on the ice.  I will watch for this as well.
