SOURCE: proper batterie hook up on minn kota 70 thursh

Raventrans click this link to take you to a website which will you can click on schematics. I suggest adding a 50 amp fuse for your 70 lb thrust unit. scroll to the end of the schematic to find the battery hookup for a 24 volt hookup.

SOURCE: my minn kota riptide 55 stopped working when i

Hi!
To start with, here's a schematic:
RT55 Hand Control
Sounds like key# 87 broke....seen it before.
To replace it, remove top cover, then remove the handle portion by removing the 5 screws underneath. There are a few peices in there, so keep close watch. Also be careful of the fine ribbon wire attaching the handle to the control board...it's pretty fragile.
Best of luck!
Mike

Minn kota riptide 55 bow mount with foot control and auto pilot. problem is prop doesn't seem to spin as fast so top speed is about half to two thirds of what it was when new. unit is about 5yrs old.just...

Sounds as if the motor has either bearings going bad and/or water has gotten in the housing washed the lubricants out. Motors do wear out eventually. I'm not sure if the brushes are replacible. Have you checked for any constrictions like fishing line? And also the contacts on the controller could have minor corrosion meaning take it apart if possible and clean with steel wool or a dremel.

How does the pin that holds the yoke come out. I have tried knocking it out with no luck. I also can't seem to find any retainer holding the pin in.

call the 800 number for minn kota on the motor. they will be able to tell you the best way to remove it on that particular motor. they have a very good tech support system at that company.

Ran aground on lake,now stuck on high speed,can't lower speed

My Minn Kota 55 powerdrive had the same problem except mine occurred while it was trailered in the yard. High speed only, everything else worked great. From what I could research the control module is a frequent problem. Took a chance and purchased a new control module and this cured the problem. Maybe this happening and running aground was just concidental.
