My Bird acts the same way when I turn it on with the xducer disconnected. If you haven't, try unplugging and look for some cruddy pins. If that doesn't help, examine the cable from the xducer to the head. Maybe it got damaged.

Mine was installed with very little slack in the wiring. If taking the unit on or off, the transducer cable might not be tightly connected. Check the back of the unit to make sure the plug end matches up with the socket (and is fully inserted).
