2012 minn kota terrova 80 24v stopped steering

Most people point to control board but how do I check for an underlying cause. I do not want to order a $300 board just to blow it again. Thanks

Trolling motors can be a bit sensitive to voltage drops which is why Minn Kota customer service reps will always ask about wiring and battery health when troubleshooting.

Prior to a visit to a Minn Kota Certified Service Center you may want to try:
1. Load test on batteries
2. Test the voltage at the motor


You might also want to try the troubleshooting section in the product manual for Legacy PowerDrive models. Page 16 in the manual below:

If your model has legacy i-Pilot, you may also want to take a look at the troubleshooting section starting on page 64 of the Legacy i-Pilot manual at the link below:

I dont know how old your battery is but they will sometimes show full charge but not last long cause of age. Try a differant battery.

. Yes it could. some are vacuum powered, cable powered (mechanically) or electric powered. If the valve does not open. The hot water will not get to the heater core. It could also be the thermostat not opening.

SOURCE: Minn Kota All Terrain 55, no drive

i would start where it plugs into the boat.check for electric there. if you have juice to the plug,then the problem is in the pedal itself.could have corrosion on wires or broken wire.you should be a ble to see which wires would be bad...

Does not run. Where can I find fuse schematic #240

A circuit breaker is recommended but not included. Do you have a circuit breaker? If there is a fuse it should be inline with the battery wire.
See link below.

Minn Kota power drive trolling motor will not steer to the right **** huard my minnkot will only steer left. I do not have a foot pedal, use the wrist remote control. even goes left when pressing down...

There is a good chance that he control board is bad. This is a common problem with these units. I have replaced my control board twice.. When the control board goes out, the some function of the unit will not work correctly while other functions work fine. The first time mine went out, the prop motor would not work. The last time the board went out, the unit would only steer right.
