Lowrance FF problem - plug disintegrated
Bad day for my Elite 5...the power/transducer cable plug crumbled on me. Although I am careful to hit the connections with WD-40 when I'm done cleaning up, some saltwater must have stayed in there and corroded one of the pin sockets until it just crumbled.
Two questions for the community: First, how do I fix this? the head unit is fine and I don't want to shell out for a new one. Replace the transducer or solder on a new plug? Second, anybody had this before and what do you do to protect this weak link in the electronics chain? |
