I am looking for a new or used transducer for my older Lowrance X-85. I'm looking for the HS-WSBK or the PD-WBK (If I am correct).

I am going to mount it on my trolling motor. Thanks for any help.

I may be wrong but my memory says blue connector on that and if I remember right you should be able to grab one most anywhere.

Thanks Dayne. Everywhere I look they say obsolete, so I didn't know if there was a universal ducer for those models. Taking a shot in the dark that someone may have an old one they wouldn't mind selling.

Is This the plug you need (don't remember which the x-85 used). If so, you can get the Lowrance Pod transducer with the blue connection and this adaptor and will work with the x-85.

Let me know if I can help.

No, mine is a 2 prong (not blue) with a "t" shape in the middle. Thanks for trying to help. I really appreciate it.

Here is the back of the head unit. I hope this helps. I'll try to snap a pic of the cord when I get home.

I believe this is what the connector looks like for the X-85 transducer cable. Found a couple on Ebay but they seem a bit expensive.

OK. Other alternative is make an adaptor, depending on how handy you are with "jack" connections. Below is a picture of the pinouts:
transducer pinout

Scroll down and you'll find the current blue end and the one for the X28. Both drawings give the pinout for Lowrance. Using the end off your bad transducer, find the appropriate wires and solder to the male side of phone jack or a barrel connector. On good Lowrance blue connection transducer, cut the end off and find the transducer +, - , and shield and solder to the phone jack receptacle. This would make the adaptor for you. If you can find someone with a "giveaway" extra lowrance transducer -- you've nothing to loose.

Jerod, I have a used transducer with that T style guide end that came with my lowrance eagle ultra classic. The trolling motor style transducer had trolling motor clamp style mounting slots that broke off. It could however be glued to something and used. If u want to go to that trouble u can have it for postage.

Transducer needed is HS-WSBK part# 90-73 for skimmer type or PD-WBK part# 90-76 for a puck type. Ebay best place to find them.
