Sigler I called you on the phone.After you finish the proper wiring we talked about here is some more information for you.I may have come up with a fix for my 898! My motor is a Motorguide tour 782v 2001 model witch isn't a digital model.It has the speed contol in the head of the unit, I tried rubber between the transducer with little results if any. I then grounded the neg wire at the motor head, this resulted in a 50% reduction of interference. I then grounded the green (ground) wire going to the motor, this also resulted in a 50% reduction in interference. I then grounded the green wire and the neg. wire to the head of the motor and wala!!!!!! no interference!!!!!! I installed a jumper wire between the green and black wires and i then took fuse holder (3 ampe) and put one end of the wire to neg. wire and grounded the other end to an unused screw hole inside the units head just for safeties sake. Haven't tried it out on the water yet but it works great in the garage!!!!!
