Replacing spade terminals

Although the transducer cable is fitted with spade terminals for direct connection to a compatible display or converter, it may be necessary to remove these to allow the cable to be routed through bulkheads or masts etc. 5 x 1/8th spade terminals will be required (not supplied), to replace the removed terminals.

Spade terminalsWhen fitting the new spade terminals, prepare the cables as shown and detailed below:

  1. Prepare the cable as shown in annotation 1 in the above illustration.
  2. Fold back the wire strands and insert into the new spade connector, as shown in annotation 2 in the above illustration.
  3. Ensure the wire strands do not extend beyond the rear of the spade connector insulation.
  4. Crimp the connector to the wire.
