Lowrance 4x hdi elite speed sensor?

[allfordhouse]

Installed the 4x hdi works ok. It's on my 12 ft aluminum. But want to put a speed sensor on it. Bought st-tu thought it was right one. Got it and can't figure out if it's the right one. Been trying to research it and can't find much info. Any help would be great thanks.

If it's the Lowrance ST - TU, and not aftermarket - go to Lowrance for tech. Not much out there otherwise.

"The Lowrance ST-TU Transom Mount Paddlewheel with Speed and Temp Model: 000-0099-75 is only the sensor.
The speed displayed will be determined by the chartplotter that it is connected to.
Most of the Lowrance chart plotters will display the speed to the tenth of a mile per hour but may not be precisely accurate.

You may want to contact Lowrance Support for assistance.

Make sense? Not to me. The 4X is not a chartplotter..............

Thanks. I'm gonna have to call. I'm starting to get into trolling and thought this finder was capable of taking speed sensor. I'll give them a call monday.

Check this link out and see which your Lowrance is compatible with the speed sensor. https://lr.factoryoutletstore.com/cat/20507/Lowrance-Speed-and-Temperature-Sensors.html .

Lowrance uses the plug's "color" to match their FF.

They got back to me pretty quickly turns out the right one is the ST-TBL after I ordered the ST-TU. Live and learn.
