Linc 2.0 boot issue

[Keven]

Hi All, we just purchased a 2018 Nautique 200 OB promo boat ( upgrading from our ‘97 SNOB). Anyways, having issues with boot up. Turn battery switch to ON , press START , light next to START flashes, bilge light comes on, no “booting” in display. If I cycle battery switch back OFF then ON, and press START it the goes into “booting”. It has done this multiple times now. Taking it back to dealer but wondering if anyone is familiar with this and what the solution was? Thanks, Keven

Typically you are supposed to wait about 10 seconds or so after you turn on the battery switch before you hit the start button on the keypad and then it should boot up with no problems, that was the case at least for my 210 with the Linc 2.0

Thanks, I will try that ...

Yep, same with me. All problems eliminated after waiting a bit after turning on battery switch.

Did that today and seemed to work. Thanks

I have this problem with my 18 as well. Just wait for 20 seconds after turning the main power switch on before starting and the problem should disappear.

Thanks appreciate the feedback.

Just catching up to this... I have a 2012 Sport 200 V with Linc 2.0. If I wait 20-30 seconds after switching the power switch it boots up 3 out of 5 times. It always booted up every time before this year. Any ideas?

Thanks.
