Never owned structure scan so, does the transducer plug into the structure scan box or what ? somebody explain it to me. It's an LSS1 box and I'm to old, disabled, and out of shape to trace it down

It depends on which Lowrance head unit you have. The newer units don't need the LSS unit, my HDS Gen 3 don't require it but my HDS Gen 1 did. So the answer depends upon which head units you have and which transducer you are using. Also, you can use the LSS-1 and LSS-2 with the Gen 3 units. So, it may or may not be connected to a structure scan unit.....

Thanks, Do you know which transducer is the best for that unit/structure scan or is there only one that will work

If you have already done everything you can do and that didn't fix it then I guess you need a new lower unit

Looks like a Gen 1 HDS-7 so my guess would be the structure scan module would be a LSS-1 as well as the transducer type for the Structure Scan. Even if it’s a gen 2 and LSS-2, the Structure Scan transducer will go directly to the structure scan module/black box then the HDS unit will connect to the Structure Scan module with an ethernet cable. Only Gen 2 touch and newer has the ability to do Structure Scan without the SS module/black box.
