Is this the right Transducer for my unit?
« on: May 14, 2012, 02:46:25 PM »
Hello there...
I'm new here and very new to the fishfinder world. I purchased a 798ci HD SI combo unit last week and installed it this past weekend. I made sure the transducer was installed correctly according to directions and measurements. THe pictures below are what I am getting from the unit. I get a blank black screen on the Side Imaging's left side. I've done research online and noticed that other people with the same unit have different looking transducers. Do i somehow have the wrong transducer? I also looked on the Humminbird's Website and saw that my model is listed under another transducer's compatibility list. Did the wrong transducer come in my package? THis is the transducer I have:

Papa is correct.
Call Humminbird and get them to send you the correct transducer:
