After 3 years of searching I may have found my electrical problem a bad breaker, I need a re-settable for my 36 volt I Pilot 50 amp, I lost power and the reset did not work, I by passed it and the motor worked better than it ever has, where should I get one?

MinnKota recommends the 60A breaker. The nice expensive one in their inventory.

I have one on the way, I borrowed a friend's to check it, that was it. Who ever installed my I Pilot used a 20 amp 12 v breaker.
Thanks to all.

Any online marine equipment store sells them, so does West Marine. A Blue Sea will run you around $25. That's the best. Be sure to get the size called for in your TM manual and make sure the wiring is correctly sized. Circuit breakers re rated by amperage capacity, not voltage.

It called for a 36v 50-60 amp breaker, my TM has 6 gage wire.
Upon inspection of the old breaker it was marked 12 volt 20 amp! That's what was installed on it.
I cleaned all connections with a wire brush before installing. Star lock washers and hex nuts.
It works better than it ever has.
