Humminbird And I-Pilot

[$hane Ghent]

Why OH why can't they just figure out stuff right???
FYI if you have Humminbird 7-1100 units the or HD the I-pilot isn't compatible to run DI or SI you will have to "OLD SCHOOL" your unit by the way which you have to send yours back to them for them to swap it out unless you ask up front it's free, but check availability 1st I waited a
"MONTH" to get mine anyways not a big deal to do. Undo the 4 screws on the bottom of the I-Pilot head, unplug ground and hot wire these have a Blue wrapping , there is one more brown with a fuse it's hear shrink wrapped so remember to have an extra piece and slide it over the wire when you disconnect it ,then undo the cable which comes factory with the I-Pilot you won't need this anymore so pop the small black 3/4" holder plate off and pull it out, set the head to the side
Undo the screw under the head that goes through the shaft hold grasp all wires slowly slide the shaft out and down servo motor housing. I put my transducer mount on and used 2 zip ties to hold the wire securely to the shaft. Then fill the outer shaft intention with your choice of glue put the new transducer wire in and all the way through the servo motor mount and through the plastic keeper with the thumb twist knob then reinstall your head in the same way you took it apart. Any questions I'm here!! I put my new transducer wire right through the coiled up factory wire looks like it came from the factory!! Good luck and GOD bless!!!
