Why Furuno FAR-1513 shows marks and noise but no echo?
If you see marks, indications, and noise but no echo on your Furuno Marine Radar, the Tx high voltage protection circuit may have been activated. Reset the power to restore normal operation.
What to do if Furuno FAR-1513 picture not updated?
If the picture on your Furuno Marine Radar is not updating or is frozen, this is likely due to a video freeze. Turn the power off and on again to restore normal operation.
Why Furuno FAR-1513 Marine Radar cannot turn on?
If your Furuno Marine Radar cannot be turned on, the cause may be a blown fuse, incorrect mains voltage/polarity, or a faulty power supply board. To resolve this, replace the blown fuse, correct the wiring and input voltage, or replace the power supply board.
