Hello all. 2021 25' SSBXP with Yamaho 250 SHO. SIMRAD GO7 started giving me issues, "Please perform initial configuration for your boat..." etc. Yamaha gauges disappeared, trim indication not working. Total motor hours gone etc. I did a factory reset on the SIMRAD and of course instantly regretted it. Turns out, SIMRAD doesn't automatically find the components in the boat (engine, transducer etc) so now is useless until It's reprogrammed. Has anyone successfully reprogrammed their SIMRAD after a reset?

Okay so did the dealer initially program your Simrad before you took delivery? Ours did and then tweaked what we wanted displayed and not displayed. Have your dealer reprogram it for you.......
I’ve done mine a couple times and never lost engine data. You do need to know what transducer you have and a few other things but it’s really not that complex once you get to know the functions and it might take you more than one reset to get it all right, kind of learning as you fumble through as I did.
Good luck.
Good luck.

trim indication? what is this referring to? attitude angle of outboard? there are no trim tabs obviously
Usually it asks you to trim all the way down and the Simrad calibrates that as full down trim, as a benchmark for trim indication on the Simrad when adjusting the trim

Yes, engine trim, no trim tabs on a pontoon.
