How to Fix your Minn kota trolling motor that won't turn !!

!!!!!!! Please Read !!!!!!

If you have lost steering function, please read:

Terrova/ST motors use drive housings that are specific to the voltage of the motor. For example, a Terrova 55/ST 55 uses a 12-volt drive housing, a Terrova 80/ST 80 uses a 24-volt drive housing, and a Terrova 101 & Terrova 112/ST 101 & ST 112 use a 36-volt drive housing.

To properly test the drive housing apply the voltage appropriate for the model directly to the drive housing leads while observing the drive housing amp draw. The amp draw under bench test, no load, conditions should be less than 2 amps for a 12-volt drive housing, and less than 1.5 amps for 24-volt and 36-volt drive housings. (NOTE: Reverse the polarity at the drive housing leads to check amp draw in both clockwise and counterclockwise rotation.) If the drive housing amp draw exceeds the values listed (2 amps for 12-volt drive housings or 1.5 amps for 24-or 36-volt drive housings) suspect that the drive housing has taken out the steering circuit on the main control board. (NOTE: When this has occurred the drive housing MUST be repaired or replaced prior to replacing the main board. If the higher than normal amp draw of the drive housing is not corrected the steering circuit on the new/replacement main control board will also fail.)

please make sure to check amp draw before replacing your Controle board it took me toasting a brand new Controle board before finding this one website with this disclaimer on it.... was not a cheap mistake
