Hi Dennis,
Thanks for the reply. I know that there is one on the helm display, and my understanding is that there is one built into the masthead wind transducer on the other end. I also am measuring 60 ohms on the bus itself (blue and white wires). According the website linked below, this would indicate the presence of endcaps or terminators on both ends. If I disconnect the wind transducer or take the endcap off the helm display, I get 120 ohms just like I am supposed to. https://www.maretron.com/support/knowledgebase/phpkbv7/article.php?id=443 This system is over 3 years old and has worked well. It was not working on the final trip to winter storage last year, so something must have happened even before last winter.

This is all B&G equipment including a Zeus Touch 7 and three Triton displays. All displays power up fine but I am getting no data from wind, depth, speed or compass transducers. The diagnostic on the displays say that the NMEA 2000 bus is off, but I don't know why. The red and black wires show 12v at all points I can measure. The resistance of white and blue is 60 ohms with both ends terminated, 120 ohms with either terminator off, and about 20k ohms with both terminators off. This seems normal based on articles I found online. I have also tried taking each piece of equipment out of the loop as best I can. Nothing I do seems to give me a network. Any ideas what I am missing?
