Default Garmin Echomap P79 transducer

Hello

I’m hoping someone can help me on this issues.

I have a Garmin Echmap94SV plus unit and using a Airmar P79 transducer.

I installed the transducer in the recommended area with RV anti freeze but not getting a depth reading. I tried contacting Airmar and they are no help and called Garmin with no help either.

I have seen Airmar makes many various models under the P79 transducer. Airmar indicated it should work.

apparently there is no way to test the transducer according to both manufacturers.

Before I purchase a Garmin similar unit I figured I would reach out to you all for advice.

thanks in advance
