Hi,
I recently purchased a Nimbus 370 with twin Yanmar 230 engines.
I have just has 2 axiom plotters installed and both of them restart when either engine is started. Even with one engine running (can be either), starting the second also makes the plotters reboot.
The engines have their own twin 75AH battery bank with a quad 75AH house battery bank.
There is an old Xantrex battery monitor where the shunt has twin shunts to monitor the starter and house batteries, but I cannot see how that would affect things as the ground is common.
The previous owner had an older Raymarine hybrid plotter which apparently did the same thing.
It is almost like in a car when you start the engine the radio/media display goes blank but on a 2001 boat I cannot see there being anything particularly sophisticated.
Any ideas to track the reason?
