Smartcraft lostpower

At blastoff in a tournament yesterday morning, a mile into running to my first spot my smartcraft gauges would blink off and come right back on. This happened about 6 times, and then they stayed off. It was a little bumpy with boat wakes and 10-15 mph winds. Did not loose power to anything else, boat still ran 75+. When I went to move from my first spot, turning the key would still beep, but the gauges would not come on. I did a quick check to see if something was loose but didnt want to get into the mile of wires and cables while on the water, that and I am no expert when it comes to wiring.Just had a 100 hr service done (1 prefish trip ago), and everything was fine.Any place I should look for a loose wire (ground) under the console, or possible a loose connection under the hood that would be a quick fix. Otherwise, its a trip to the dealer with a hectic schedule (Im in the process of moving).Boat still ran fine, not as fast with full livewells (small limit) and not wanting to push it with no wp and trim.Thanks for any suggestionsJim Your Signature ...
