    "This cable should not be use to connect a HELIX fish finder with both MEGA 360 Imaging and Built-In MEGA Imaging on Minn Kota trolling motors. Please refer to #720108-1 14 M360 2DDI Y for this specific rigging need.
    Is not compatible with Built-in MEGA Imaging transducers on select Minn Kota trolling motors"

    This contradicts Wayne's advice.

    No offense intended, just pointing out more source of confusion.

    Awesome, thanks Rich. I was wondering if my 360 being in a bucket of water and my 2D/MDI being dry would cause the issue. I’m getting it on the water in a few hours, so hopefully it works like it should as you’re describing.

    The 14 M360 2DDI Y cable is not compatible with a Helix or any 7-pin transducers.

    I believe it is compatible with the Mega 360 and a minn kota built in mega DI. Then you connect the Y cable to the Helix with the AD HELIX M360 Adapter (product number 720109-1)14 to 7 pin adapter cable.
    Is this not correct?
    I am not arguing with you Wayne.
    I am just trying to consolidate your statements with what I read on the Humminbird website.
