Worked fine at the start of the day.. Around noon, not so much.. (Minn Kota Riptide 24v, hand controlled) When I turn it on I can hear the hum of the electric motor, but the blade isn't turning.. When I tried to take the plastic nut off to look at the shaft, the shaft turns with the nut so I can't get the nut off.. Never had this happen before, anyone have any ideas?

If the shaft is turning with the shaft the shear pin is sheared. bg
If I'm not fishing or hunting I'm hunting a place to fish or hunt.
