When i brought my skeeter it came with a foot controlled Motor Guide Tour Edition 767, after checking the whole boat out, i then moved up to the trolling motor and everytime i pressed the foot control to operate the T.M the blade would turn 1 rotation and then i can hear a click in the head of the trolling motor and it also tricks my breaker. Is this possibly a wire issue in the head? Thanks Ray
