Hi guys, new to the forum. Hope this wasen't a recent post. Motor Guide is a 109lb 3 bank variable speed, it is stuck on high. Taking it to Allstar today. Info I got from Rockwall Marine was possible circut board malfunction. Anyone else had this problem?

yes. water intrustion caused my circuit board to fry. it would remain on HIGH speed anytime the power was turned on... POS! I hate MG, but it was my only option at the time!! i cuss it everytime i use it! minn kota is the ONLY way to go and be satisfied!

Thanks guys for all the help. We have gotten so frustrated that we're are buying a new Minn Kota 101 lb. Found it in Fort Worth. We pick it up tomorrow.

Mine is exactly the same. My local boat dealer could not service it so I've just learned to live with it. I'll try to get it fixed this winter.

Guys, I appreciate the info. I bought the Minn Kota fourtrax 101. Installed it last night. I can't wait to try it out this weekend. That sucker is quiet.
