The radar, in our 2010 R29, is not showing on the chart plotter. Also did not hear it powering up when the plotter was turned on. Last time we used the boat it worked fine. Is there a fuse or connection I should check?

Have you checked the power plug at the base of the radar unit itself? There was a known problem with the connector coming loose/unplugged and or corrosion. Trailering vibrations made it come unplugged on a regular basis.
Garmin techs replaced our 2009 R-25 Classic radar connector at the 2015 Rendezvous even though it was way out of warranty.
 
Thanks. We’re on vacation at the end of the week and that’s a good time to check. The 7.5 Mp fuse looks ok but will check with a meter.
