put it in the shop, might just be as simple as a switch.

Have a good look at the power wire. Often times its spliced near the bow, and sometimes if spliced poorly it'll corrode and lose power to motor....it can be tough to diagnose but easy to fix...it happend to me and saved a trip to the shop...good luck!

I once had mine stop working, same kind of deal. There was one screw loose inside the plug that I never thought to check.

Spin the prop a little bit. There might be a bad spot on the armature.

Could be Breaker or Check boat and TM elec plugs if your hot the board in the TN Head is more than likely burnt. peep

If you have no power between the pedal and the TM head its not your control board... well there is something else wrong.

Had that happen to me once too. Typical sneaky electrical problems.

Barely power from the plug to the pedal...no power from the pedal to trolling motor..think I'll check the main line from plug to pedal...think there may be a splice in line...as suggested in earlier post...

Well power from plug to off/on switch,power to control board,however coming out from control board to pedal switch,& trolling motor head no power.....thinking the control board is not letting power go thru..it's stopping @ control board...
