LINC and Zero Off won't turn on

[davismp1]

Have a '12 200 OB and when I enter my user code and press start, the LINC display and the Zero Off gauge start to boot (for about 1/3 of a second) before turning off (almost like they are shorting out). The blue accessory light (bottom right of the Start Button) is flashing on and off. I assume this is indicating an issue, but can't find anything in the manual or on posts indicating what this is telling me.

If I press the Start Button a second time, the boat starts - still without the display or Zero Off. Since the LINC display is where I view all of my gauges (no manual gauges at all) I can't drive the boat, without risk of something going wrong (overheating or something) and not being warned.

I have checked the fuses and they all look fine. Thought about replacing them anyway, but figured that since I see the system try to start to boot (for a fraction of a second), they must be getting power through the fuse and then shorting out???

Thanks!!!

I had that problem with our 210 last year. I found that turning off batteries for 30 seconds and then back on helped. Since the recent update I got when they installed nss I haven't experienced this.

had same issue

i tried turning off battery isolator and also cleaned/ tightened all EARTH connections behind screen (lots of vibration over hours) and on engine and it worked, but not sure which of the aforementioned 2 issues caused the problem
