Universal Sonar Adaptor question

[Thrillz]

I have a Minn Kota 80lb PD/AP/CP/US. I bought the universal adaptor for my Lowrance X52 and went to connect it but found 2 of the 3 prongs in the connector from the Minn Kota were missing . The wire comes from the head of the unit, meets a connector 2 ft. down, runs for 6 ft. and then connects to the universal connector. I'm looking for that 6 ft. connector and where it is for sale. Can anyone help.

MinnKota, E-bay, or any of the gazillion on-line stores that sell MinnKota motors.

I dont' think you understand. It is the minn kota part. 11 ft. - 3 pin connector on both ends, female/male. I have searched the internet endlessly for this thing. It is Minn kota part #2211405 and is $50 through Minn Kota. Was looking to save by finding it somewhere cheaper.

Re: Universal Sonar Adaptor question

I understand perfectly and that's why you won't likely find it in the aftermarket -- simply because the aftermarket has no market for this piece. You and maybe five other people on the planet are looking for it so it does not make economic sense for the aftermarket to actually make this cable. If the aftermarket bought the cable from Minnkota for resale they would have to mark it up higher than Minnkota's price so nobody would buy it. Certain unique, low volume parts simply have no place in the aftermarket because the volume is so low.
