I am not at all sure what you are asking. You need to learn to use some punctuation and some capital letters where appropriate. Sorry to be so blunt, but it is VERY hard to follow what you are asking. Also, it is not clear what your set-up is. Is it a Minn-kota 55 with the transducer mounted on the trolling motor? What exactly do you mean by not working right? I have that unit on the transom and have no issues, but I know that it can have issues with a trolling motor mount if it is not done just precisely correct. Have you contacted Humminbird support? They are very helpful, althought it will likely be very difficult to get through to anyone just before the big holiday (as everyone is trying to do the same thing.) It sopunds like you have two different mounting positions for one display. Unless you have two transducers, I am doubtful whether that unit supports that sort of set-up.
