Yes, this question has been asked many, many, many times....

What I have found that works well is to use a simple procedure ALWAYS for connecting and disconnecting your fishfinder.

Using this procedure for the past 3-4 years, I'm still on my original power cable from my original HDS7 unit, with no visible corrosion.

When Connecting:
1. Connect fishfinder
2. Connect battery

When Disconnecting:
1. Disconnect battery
2. Disconnect fishfinder

Never disconnect your fishfinder with your battery connected ever!!! Especially when your fishing or around saltwater or any kind of water!!!

At the end of every trip I like to rinse the connectors with freshwater.
