    Default Eagle Classic Power connection


    I have a problem. The power connection on my Eagle Ultra (10-15 yrs old) became loose so I wiggled it to see if it was loose. It came apart in my hand because the rubber connector was so rotten. The wires are still on the female pin connectors but I don't know which pins on the depth finder to put them on. I am only using 2 of the 6 wires and only for the power. Does anyone have one of these that could tell me which pins I should put the power on? If I connect it to the wrong pins, it could ruin the unit and it was working perfectly until the connector came loose.

    Default Eagle Ultra Classic

    I am still using an Ultra Classic on the console of one of my boats. If the connection is the same I may be able to help you. I am going to be tied up tomorrow but on Tuesday I will be able to look at this and tell you what you want to know.

    Default Eagle Ultra Classic connections

    Looking at the back of the unit the pins are starting on the top one as number 1 it looks like the power wires go on number 3 and number 6. I cannot tell which is hot and which is ground as mine is all still in a harness and plug. This is the best I can come up with!! This is counting in a clockwise direction.

    Thanks for the information. I'm not sure which pins to put the power to and I may need to just see if I can buy another power cable and check the voltage on the pins. I thought the wires were next to each other when it came off but I may be mistaken. I know that if I put 12 volts on the temp sensor pins or the speed sensor pins that it could fry the unit.

    I will probe that connector today with a multimeter and find out which place is the hot pin. I will also look in my junk for a power connector. I will get back to you after I do some checking

    I did check this out and this is what I found. Looking at the back of the unit and at the receptacle for the plug. the alignment arrow is pointing to the right. Start with top pin being number 1 count clockwise and the # 2 pin is the hot the # 5 pin is the ground. That would make them come out side by side the way you said you thought they were. I looked and I don't have a power wire for any eagles left. All I had was a couple of temperature sensor cords. Good luck with this and good fishing
