J-Doc Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 If anyone has a Lowrance transducer they are not using, let me know. I need one for my trolling motor. Mine decided to tell me SWEPCO was 250ft deep today when it would actually pickup the bottom. Its toast. Need marine repair? Send our own forum friend "fishinwrench" a message. He will treat you like family!!! I owe fishinwrench a lot of thanks. He has been a great mechanic with lots of patience! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 What unit does it need to fit? What color is the connector? Is it through hull or transom mount? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Doc Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 Lowrance 67c. Its the standard transducer for the lower end units. The wiring harness plugs in only and has about 4 or 5 pins I think. It doesn't have a screw connection. Need marine repair? Send our own forum friend "fishinwrench" a message.

Dutch Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I have a few old ducers laying around. I'll see if any fits the description. BTW: Is it mounted internally? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Doc Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 Great! Thanks! Its an external. I am mounting it to my trolling motor. It has a metal bracket that's made for the transducer.

J-Doc Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 This is the power cable for it. You can see the adapter type required. http://www.redsgear.com/popup.aspx?src=images/product/large/10871_1_.jpg Also, below is an image of the transucer that ypically comes with the power cable attached. http://www.shopepal.com/popup.aspx?src=images/product/large/957_1_.jpg This transducer has a different power connection but I'm thinking the wiring is the same and can be spliced to the connector that I have as shown in the first image. Pins match up so the wiring should be the same. Just need to take the screw-type connector off and splice in the plug in connector. I VERY much appreciate it! Need marine repair?

fishinwrench Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Did you try re-booting the unit? Every LCR I have ever owned kinda looses it's mind periodically (usually after getting in extreme shallow water where the return signal doubles, triples, and quadruples confusing the unit). Turn the unit on and put the transducer in the palm of your hand....if you can feel it "ticking" and the ticking maintains a rhythm it is probably not a failed transducer.

I reset all settings with the reset option, plugged and unplugged , and I even swapped my helm unit with the bow unit to see if it was the graph. It was the transducer. I even tapped the transducer with my pocket knife to see if something was hung (old mechanics trick lol!!) and like expected.....it helped but not for long. Need marine repair?

Dutch Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I looked and didn't find anything that I think will work for you. Sorry. Have you looked on Ebay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
