- EEdgar JacksonSep 9, 2025
If you're experiencing poor discrimination in range with your Furuno Marine Radar, try adjusting the A/C SEA control.
How to improve range discrimination on Furuno FR-8062 Marine Radar?
If you're experiencing poor discrimination in range with your Furuno Marine Radar, try adjusting the A/C SEA control.
Why are the range rings not showing on my Furuno FR-8062 Marine Radar?
If the range rings are not displayed on your Furuno Marine Radar, adjust their brilliance on the Brill/Color menu. If that's unsuccessful, the associated circuit board may need to be replaced. If problems persist, replace the SPU Board.
How to fix Furuno FR-8062 Marine Radar if power cannot be turned on?
If your Furuno Marine Radar power won't turn on, the fuse may be blown, so replace it. Check the wiring and input voltage to ensure they are correct. If the problem persists, the power supply board may need replacement.
How to troubleshoot Furuno Marine Radar if you cannot turn on the power?
If your Furuno Marine Radar doesn't turn on, check the fuse to see if it's blown. Ensure the power connector is firmly fastened and inspect the power cable connector for corrosion. Also, check the power cable for damage and verify the battery's voltage output is within the range of 10.8-31.2 V.
Why is my Furuno FR-8062 sensitivity poor even when tuned properly?
If your Furuno Marine Radar is properly tuned but sensitivity is poor, turn off the 2nd-trace echo rejector from the Echo menu. Clean any dirt from the radiator face. If the issue persists, with the radar transmitting on 48 nm range, check the magnetron current; if it's below normal, replace the magnetron. Also, check the MIC detecting current; if it's below normal, the MIC may have become detuned.
What to do if Furuno FR-8062 Marine Radar key is not responding?
Turn off and on the power. If there still is no response the key may be faulty. Contact your dealer for advice.
Why is the interference rejector not working on my Furuno FR-8062?
If the interference rejector is not working, and the interference rejection level is not displayed on your Furuno Marine Radar, the SPU Board may need to be replaced.
Why is echo stretch not working on my Furuno FR-8062?
If the echo stretch is not working, and neither ES1, ES2, nor ES3 is displayed on your Furuno Marine Radar, the SPU Board may need to be replaced.
How to fix Furuno FR-8062 when target not tracked correctly?
If targets are not being tracked correctly on your Furuno Marine Radar, and there's poor definition of targets in sea clutter, adjust the A/C SEA and A/C RAIN controls.
Furuno FR-8062: marks appear, but no noise or echo. What to check?
If, when adjusting the GAIN with A/C SEA set to minimum on your Furuno Marine Radar, marks and indications appear but there's no noise or echo, check the continuity and isolation of the coaxial cable. If the cable is not the issue, the IF amplifier may need to be replaced. If the problem persists, check the coax line for a secure connection. If the connection is good, replace the SPU board.
