Hello,
For some reason my temp is not working and I can't figure out how to navigate through the settings to see if got accidentally turned off. Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Turn you unit on. Hit your power button once. Then hit "Edit Overlay Data". Now you will see a faint blue box around one of the digital overlay data items. Touch the screen on the water temp. The blue box will be around the water temp. If the drop down menu is not shown on the right side of the screen, hit Menu at the top of the screen and it will appear. Since the blue box is surrounding the water temp, when you hit delete the water temp will go away. Hit Delete. Now go to Add and then go to Sonar and choose water temp. This will reinstall the digital water temp on the screen. It will have the blue box around it. You can place your finger on it and drag it anywhere on the screen you want the water temp reading to be. Now hit Configure on the drop down Menu. Here is where you can change the size of the digital read out, get rid of the Caption or invert the text.

When you reinstall the Overlay Data Water Temp this will normally allow the unit to recognize the digital overlay item and it should read. If it doesn't, let us know and there is more you can do beyond this. Although this usually fixes the issue.
