I’ve got a 2019 two for 2X.

This morning, my boat started giving me a communication error telling me to check the depth transducer and a stereo error, both saying check auxiliary CAN.

Within about 15 minutes, I started getting multiple communication errors, including joystick, SPU 25–15, gps and Pump controller.


When I start my boat now the blower goes on and off like it’s losing the connection. If I try to turn the lights on, they flash on and off. My depth finder will randomly start working as well.

And t light on my joystick is flashing.

I’ve disconnected batteries, checked all plug connectors I can see and checked connections on the battery switch. All seem fine.

battery voltage on both batteries is reading 12.8.

Both engines start fine and I still have engine and drive control with my throttle lever but keypad and joystick are inoperable.

Any ideas?

UPDATE: figured out it was my depth transducer. I turned batteries off, unplugged transducer, turned batteries back on and all but the transducer communication error went away. I suppose now I’ll be reading posts on how to replace the transducer :)
