Well, never fails. I took off today and tomorrow for some much needed downtime and fishing. Went down to get the boat in order last night and the dang transducer is out...Check all wiring, etc. GPS works great (combo unit) but looks like I need a new Lowrance Transducer (50/200 khz skimmer). I checked bass pro and cabelas but nothing in stock here in Dallas. Any other ideas of who might carry one?

Unit is a Lowrance LMS 527C iGPS. Has a 20' Skimmer Transducer cable and a plug in style connector to the unit. Part number on Lowrance shows #106-77

Started not reading the bottom. Basically reads 1.6' at all times on either frequency. Have "reset" settings, tried to adjust sensitivity, etc. My buddy ran it to All Star and they hooked it up to some machine to update the software and tested and they said the unit looks fine. I cleaned off bottom of transducer and still no change. Transducer plugs directly into the unit, and power/GPS is on the other connection. Looked at the wire and saw no damage to wire, connections look good and do not see any damage to the transducer itself.

ok thanks. This one has the blue connectors...not sure if that matters or not? In the parts catalog they list them different "grey" and "blue" connectors...
