I took my son and a friend out this morning. Trolling motor worked fine most the morning, and then the foot control just stopped. Nothing. I could however switch it to constant and it would run, but the manual foot control won't work. Any ideas? Never had this happen.

By the way, it's a Minn Kota Maxxum 80lb.

Same exact thing happened to my Maxxum 80 a couple of years ago. The little on/off button under the foot control was bad. I bought one from a trolling motor repair shop in Houston and swapped it out myself. Simple fix.

I'm looking at the part list for my Maxxum. I believe the part number is 2260810 (clip, reed switch). I remember the cost of the part being around $7 to $10.
