Hi guys, can you help me here ? Recently bought a lowrance elite 5x off trade me ,it arrived yesterday with 2 cables one to the transducer the other seems to fit the temp / speed port.   Transducer fits the power port. Has the seller failed to send correct cables?? If not how the hell are you supposed to get power from battery to the unit ?? The cable from the speed / temp port has a female conx on the other end.   Any help here would be much appreciated

Mine is a Elile 5 hdi
 have 2 ports on the back of mine.
 1 goes to the transducer
 the other for power.

The power port should be marked "power"..male with off set center pin
The "sonar" female.

you can download the manual including fitting instructions from the lowrance web site.

I will be fitting my new Elite 7 total scan soon to replace it.. so maybe open to offers on the 5"

Thanks for that. I just had a look. The transducer cable is a 6 pin male connector. It only fits the power port so it's got me stuffed.

That pic you took of the plug does it have two cables running out of the one plug?

I have the same unit,Both cables(power,transducer) go to the one plug on mine.Same 6 pin plug as your pic.

Thanks guys. The guy I bought it off cut the power lead really short instead of leaving a bit of length on the cable. All sorted cheers
