How to fix radar initialization issues on Raymarine E120W GPS?
- P
  paul95Sep 9, 2025
  If the radar will not initialize due to the Voltage control module (VCM) being stuck in “sleep mode”, check the power connection at the VCM. Verify the voltage at the input (12 / 24 V) and the output (40 V). The cause is most likely an intermittent or poor power connection.
