I am going to test my probe later today, but yesterday I was getting bad temp reading at the ball.
Wondering if anyone with a Fish Hawk X4D would be willing to test my probe with their unit.
I am in the Colchester Outer Bay area, but can get to the IS if need be or I can travel by my Truck as well.
I can be reached via PM on this site or text or call me at 802 316 9024.
Damn disappointing if it has gone bad....I treat it like an egg....

Re: Fish Hawk Probe Test
I changed the batteries last night and will fight the rain to test again later. I will need someone to test it for me if it still fails.

Re: Fish Hawk Probe Test
Check the wire connectors to the battery pac. Sometimes the strands can break and cause issues with flakey readings...

Re: Fish Hawk Probe Test
Changed batteries again...just in case.
Very frustrating....
Almost rather lose the damn thing than have it go bad when I did nothing to abuse it!

Re: Fish Hawk Probe Test
Just need someone to test it.
My only other option is to send the whole mess to Trevor at Fish Hawk.....out of warranty of course

Re: Fish Hawk Probe Test
Just an update to this issue. After a few calls emails to Trevor, I finally decided to call and discuss the issue. They agreed to ship me a replacement under warranty even though the probe was over a year old. So I guess what I am saying is Fish Hawk stands behind their product!
