[QUOTE="Allen, post: 373773, member: 389"] It was brand new. So not updated, especially since I would assume the Garmin should be universal sonar ready from the factory. I haven't had any time to mess with it as of late, since I've been out fishing when not working. I think I am going to try a new cable. The head unit is simply not "seeing" the universal transducer. If it's the only thing plugged into the head unit, it won't even let you into the sonar menus simply because it is not recognizing a transducer being hooked up to it. It just boots you out to the main menu. When I hooked up the Garmin transducer to the Y cable, it allowed me into the sonar settings to change the transducer selected over to the Minnkota, but still not seeing anything. [/QUOTE]
