Hello looking for some help here please . I have a 2013 R20 and the transducer has started to misbehave. The speedo only works occasionally and the depth reads 996.
The original part is no longer available and in fact the part number doesn't even show up on the Airmar website, I have tried every number on the Airmar sticker. Maybe it was unique for Tige. So I believe I have bought the newer model but the only problem is it has more wires than the old unit. I cannot find a wiring diagram anywhere, and the new transducer helpfully didn't come with one. I am not an auto electrician so all of this is blowing my mind a little.
So the old transducer had 5 wires - Blue, White, Yellow, Red and Black,
These fed into the male block that leads to the boat, but these are 2 Blacks, White, Purple and Green
These are wired Green to Yellow, Purple to Red, Black to Black, White to White, Blue to Black
So my first question is, does anyone have a wiring diagram for this unit and the R20?
The new unit, an Airmar DST 800 Nmea 2000, 235 Khz has 7 wires, Green, Red, Blue, Black, Brown, White and bare.
So my second question is have I been sold the wrong part or is this compatible with the boat? Please help
