Hi
This weekend i am going to fit my new lowrance 5150c plotter in place of the old Icom plotter.
When I fitted the Icom plotter I used the old Garmin ariel that was already fitted to the boat and just connected to the existing wiring which has two conductors but the Lowrance plotter ariel has a moulded on plug with four pins/sockets .
Are they all being used ? if not I can probably connect to the existing cable again.
as it will save a lot of messing about running wires.
If they are all being used I will cut the wire in the middle, feed it in from both ends and use a connector inside the boat
WHY do manufacturers put such BIG plugs on the end of there wires
