Why Furuno Marine Radar antenna is not rotating?
If the Furuno Marine Radar antenna is not rotating, the antenna drive mechanism may need replacement. Alternatively, press the relay reset button, because there may be a defective antenna drive motor relay (thermal relay K2, 200/220/380, 440/100 VAC).
How to fix Furuno Marine Radar when target is not tracked correctly?
If the Furuno Marine Radar tracked target is not tracked correctly, adjust A/C SEA and A/C RAIN controls.
How to fix incorrect orientation of picture on Furuno Marine Radar?
If the Furuno Marine Radar has incorrect orientation of picture, the HDG SIG MISSING message appears when the heading pulse is not received during transmitting. Also, replace the gyro interface.
What to do if brilliance adjusted but no picture on Furuno Marine Radar?
If the Furuno Marine Radar has brilliance adjusted but no picture, replace the SPU board.
How to fix only 2 PI lines on Furuno Marine Radar?
If the Furuno Marine Radar shows only 2 PI lines when 6 lines are wanted, adjust the PI line interval. Also, the setting for the number of PI lines to display may be inappropriate. Check the menu setting for the number of PI lines.
How to fix inaudible key beep on Furuno Marine Radar?
