Try Cabela's, Gander Mtn or Bass Pro. They all usually have a pretty good selection of LEI stuff. You could also do a search on Google. I did buy a new Speed/Temp sensor on E-Bay last year for my Eagle Ultra Classic, but I didn't see much when I tried to find a transducer for my Humminbird. It sure is nice have the speed temp sensor since I don't have gps. I don't think you'll have too much trouble finding a tranducer for that model.

| Thanks guys Im onto it now, but before I go and order a new transducer let me tell you what the problem is just in case, the depth is reading (flashing) 0.0 I assume its the ducer or could it be the internal electrics that could be the problem?
Thanks Dave

Check the transducer cable. In my experience those cables can be very finicky. I've had to replace a couple of tranducer/cable assemblies for the Humminbird unit that is mounted on my bow-mount trolling motor because the cable got nicked up.

Location: Wisconsin | Could be the transducer, or a bad unit. Is the transducer "clicking" when the boat is out of the water? Is there anything scrolling on the screen at all? Transducer wires do go bad, and senders as well....
Before you drop 40 - 50 bucks on a transducer for that unit ( I think that is the older grey connectors), you can get a really good locator for around 100 bucks. Might be time to upgrade? |

I cant hear the transducer clicking when out of the water, the screen is ok as far as I can tell and scrolls as normal but shows 0.0 depth, all cables/connectors are black. |

Thanks Tom, I cant see much wrong with the cable? this problem started a few months ago intermitantly and has now become permanent.

How old of a unit is this? I had a eagle ultra III stolen off of my boat and still have the transducer around my house somwhere. I am not sure if it will work or not, but I thought it might be worth a try.
Send me a pic of the cable end and I will see if they look the same.

Hi Jeff, the unit is over ten years old but has not been abused. The connection has two round pins and a "T" shape locater. But Jeff heres the funny part, I live in the UK although I do buy fishing stuff from the states on a regular basis, if the connector is the same and you still want to send it I could pay you the postage and something for your trouble via paypal, Dave |

| It doesn't sound like the plug-in that i have. Mine has 4 round hole and a little "T" in the middle. If you still want to send me a pic I will double check to make sure.
If it ends up working I will send them to you for the cost of shipping.

| You are in luck. The tag on mine also says hs-wsbk.
I actually found 2 tranducers for my old locator. one is a wide angle, and the other is a broadview x-ducer. I can send them both. How much does is cost to ship accross the big pond?
