Upgrading Lowrance on PA14

Post by TxGulfCoast »

I recently bought a 2015 PA14 that came with a Lowrance Elite 4X HDI already installed. Only problem is that it does not have chartplotting capabilities. The 4X have regular sonar and also downscan which I believe is the splitshot transducer. Question is that if I purchase a new unit that has charts will is be a simple plug and play assuming I do not want side scan? From what I’ve seen the newer model Lowrance, specifically the Hook2 7 have different plugs that go into the back of the unit. Is there any possible way to get around replacing the transducer other than buying a older and/or used combo unit that has the matching plugs?

Regular sonar has 83hz/200hz options and the downscan has 455hz/800hz. Not sure if that was important to add or not...

Thanks guys
