To affix the transducer to the hull
use only 2-Part, Slow Cure Epoxy
. Never use any adhesive or glue that is not 2 part, slow cure epoxy such as silicon sealant, weather sealants, rubbery caulks, construction adhesives, 5 minute or quick cure epoxies, rubber cements or 3M’s 4200 or 5200 adhesive sealants.
Can you fix a transducer cable?
You can do it if you keep the solder joints small, stagger the splices so you don’t get a huge lump in the line, and wrap the two wire pairs and whole bundle with foil tape, using liquid electrical tape under shrink wrap. It ain’t fun, but it can be done.

How do I fix my depth finder?
How do you glue a transducer?
Will a transducer work through Fibreglass?
The standard (83/200 kHz) pod style transducer and standard (83/200 kHz) skimmer transducer, have a proven track record of performing well shooting through a fiberglass hull when installed correctly. You will lose 10-15% of sonar performance when shooting through fiberglass.
How do you attach a transducer to an aluminum boat?
Can you solder transducer wires?
you should be good to go.
Solder the splice using electronics flux solder, using shrink sleeve each wire and then over the entire bundle
. Try the alumiminum foil, but cover the whole splice in shrink wrap. I have a fish finder with a sliced transducer cable.
Can you solder a transducer cable?
Can you cut and splice a transducer cable?
Yes, the transducer cable can be cut
. However, if the transducer came with a connector do not cut it off. The molded on connector is waterproof. You need to cut and splice the cable away from the connector using Airmar’s splash-proof Junction Box.

- Display shows surface reading, but no bottom reading.
- Display shows wrong depth reading.
- Display shows erratic readings (especially when the boat speeds up)
How do you test a transducer out of water?
Put a bucket of water under the transducer. It should show about 4 times the distance between the transducer and the water surface
. Sound travels x4 in air compared to water. Just a quick and cheap way to check the transducer.
How do you test a transducer?
- Connect the positive terminal of the transducer to the positive terminal of the power supply.
- Connect the negative terminal of the transducer to the positive lead on the multimeter.
- Connect the negative lead of the multimeter to the negative terminal on the power supply.
How do you Epoxy a transducer?
How do you install a transducer?
What do you fill a hull transducer with?
How do you install a transducer without drilling holes?

.
Can you mount a transducer inside a fiberglass boat?
This also eliminates the need to remove the boat from the water for installation, and there will be no protrusions under the boat. But there are downsides. For one,
the transducer must be mounted on solid fiberglass
; in-hull transducers will not function in cored fiberglass hulls without special modifications.
