Bent Pin

The "prong" you referred to is a pin which sends a signal one way or the other. If it is not broken you can try gently straightening it out. If it breaks when you try to straighten it you are probably out of luck unless you know somebody that repairs electrical plugs. Good Luck!

You might be able to bend it back to position very carefully with a pin or paperclip. If not, you may need a new transducer.

On my raymarine, the pins are on the fish finder side, not the cable side, I hope this is not the case with yours because a broken or bent pin on the fish finder side is not easy to replace.
