somebody made them LOLI have seen connext not boot up, frozen screens, and no touch ability but not lines on the screen.
Thats a new one to me.
Are they available?
This seems to really only be a problem with Yamaha, and I really hope they wise up and move on from it (though I'm not likely to buy another Yamaha). Every other manufacturer I can think of uses an off the shelf display you can get locally or next day from Amazon and unencrypted NMEA. Screen dies? Pop in a new screen for a few hundred bucks in an hour. I think the list price on the tiniest connext screen is north of $4K.Agree w The Cannuck - This kind of stuff is why I'm not all too excited to buy a new boat and am really considering shipping mine back to the mainland when I come back in a few years. Much prefer analog equipment for the user gauges and would appreciate Yamaha going to the OBD2 port like cars. Hate not having the reasonable ability (cost) to trouble shoot my boat with a scanner... Yamaha - Im a Fan but you can do better.
I thought it only had a one year warranty. Yes it’s a 2018@Marvin willis I haven't seen that either, but it looks like a common electronics issue with displays. If it's from a 2018 model, you should be able to get a replacement.
