Garmin Weather Cap for Power/Data Cable, Connector Cover

Overview

The Garmin 010-10817-03 is a weather cap that covers the connector on your power/data cable when it is left unplugged. It keeps the plug end from sitting open to salt spray, washdowns, and grime, which is exactly when connector pins start getting ugly and intermittent.

This is the kind of small part that matters most when a helm gets rinsed often, when electronics are removed for winter storage, or when you are mid-install with cables hanging behind the dash. Pop the cap on the cable connector until you are ready to mate it to the display.

Key features

• Covers the connector end of a power/data cable to help keep water and debris off the contact area while disconnected
• Useful during installs, troubleshooting, and seasonal storage when cables are left behind the helm
• Compatible with GPSMAP 4208, 4210, 4212, 5208, 5212, 5215, 6208, 6212, 7015, 7212, and 7215 units that use the matching power/data cable connector
• Quick to fit and remove without tools, so you can protect open connectors between trips

Compatibility and fit

This cap is made for a specific Garmin power/data cable connector style. It is listed as compatible with GPSMAP 4208, 4210, 4212, 5208, 5212, 5215, 6208, 6212, 7015, 7212, and 7215 systems that use that matching connector. If your boat has a different GPSMAP generation, a black box, or a power-only connector, compare the plug shape and size on your cable before ordering.

Installation and setup

Dry the connector end of the cable, then seat the cap fully so it covers the opening. On open-console boats and fishing rigs that see frequent spray, it helps to cap any unused power/data leads between uses, even if the display is mounted in place.

Use cases on board

This is a good match for boats that get washed down regularly, boats stored outdoors, and helms where cables stay exposed behind a panel. It is also handy to keep in the spares kit when you are carrying a backup power/data cable or swapping displays during service.

Maintenance and care

Rinse salt residue off the cap and cable end with fresh water and let everything dry before long storage. If the cap no longer stays seated or shows cracking, replace it so the connector stays protected.
