    Default Minn Kota PD V2 US2 Cable Help!


    Hey guys need some help please. I bought the cable to run from my DF to the TM but when I cut it on it tells me "No Source". What is that all about I hooked the cable up right but would I have to go back in the DF and change the type of transducer? Thanks

    It should recognize the transducer even if it needs to be changed. Are you talking about the adaptor cable to interface the DF with the US2 built in transducer on the TM or do you have a different setup?

    If the pins matched and you know your hook up is right then it has to be the wrong cable or as you say change the transducer in the df. You should be able to hook and go. What are you hooking up if I may ask?

    Ray, yes I have the adaptor cable for the US2 built in transducer.

    BigDawgg I'm hooking it up to a HDS 5X just Sonar and the cable is suppose to fit any HDS model. Thank you both for your help.

    I just read a statement on the computer that said:... I have this graph connected to an older minnkota powerdrive with universal ... The current US2 cables are not compatible with motors built 2006 or prior. .... Could this be your problem? How old is your power drive tm? I would just call MinnKota and see what they say. Sorry I am dumb when it's electric or anything else. LOL

    Thanks BigDawgg just got it last year from Brian at BBGMarine and just bought the cable from him. Great guy I highly recommend him. I also sent him a pm last night and he's good on answering back.
