I have a 1978 Evinrude 25hp motor and a Bottom line tounament 3300 sidefinder depth finder. I can not find an owners manual on the depth finder but from what i have learned from useing it, i think it has a setting that reads how many volts im gettin to the depth finder. My problem is that when im just trolling or even just sitting with the depth finder on it is reading around 13 volts but when i get up and run it climbs to around 16-16.5 and starts flashing to high of voltage and then shuts its self off!? My question is, is it my battery going bad or is it a problem with the alternator? If its the alternator how do i go about testing it and getting to it. im new to the outboard motor world. Thanks for any info!
