Re: no reverse on minn kota
You might want to , post this in electrical / trolling motor forum. Probably get better replies . <br /> One of the moderators , will probably do it for ya. <br /> As far as your motor, There may be alot more to getting reverse to work then you think. Is F/R controled by a circuit board or a seperate switch? If its a circuit board, you will most likely need, a new board or repair the old one. It may not be that difficult, being its only reverse, I dont know, as I dont have that motor. It would seem, that its just the F/R switch circuit. <br /> If the old board is solid state , and you can isolate the faulty , chip, resistor, diode , variable resistor etc. Then you can probably, buy the needed component, at radio shack or the like. If , like I think, most of the boards on trolling motors ,are sealed in a medium of some sort.(waterproof) Which makes it almost impossible to trouble shoot / repair it. Just do as they said and replace it. Or buy a new motor. You may find , a non-running one, for parts if its like yours. You got a good deal on it , if its in good shape otherwise , I'd buy the board. <br /> <br /> If it is repairable, you would of course need to have a good understanding of current flow, and how circuits work. As well as a test bench , which makes it alot easier.<br /> Good-Luck,<br /> KYHunter
