Trolling Motor Speed Control Failure

Trolling Motor Speed Control Failure - 11/24/16 12:20 PM

Minn Kota Edge 70#er - fished Aquilla in the wind Monday and evrything worked fine. Dropped it into Granbury yesterday and setting 3 doesn't work and I'm not sure 4 is working as fast as it should.

It's out of warranty, so would it be user fixable or is this a service center issue?

Worth fixing before the new i-Pilot Link Terrovas come out?

Thanks,

Scott

Troubleshot with the assistance of Jones Trolling Motor Services, found to be speed coil issue.

His accurate help successfully found the bad part for you but you bought needed repair part elsewhere.

Unfortunately, yes. I would have preferred to get them from him and was ready to drive to Texarkana to do so. He replied on Friday and I asked about the parts and tried to call him (I did not leave a message). He replied to the parts question Saturday morning and said that he wouldn't be back in the shop until Monday. I needed the parts no later than today due to my availability to do the repairs.
