I had something similar with mine, it turned out to be the "mother" board. Easy enough to replace. 

Call Bay Distributors in North Bay and there's a guy there who should be able to tell you the issue over the phone.  +1 705-476-6010

 

Thanks, I'll ask soon.

Limited experience, but those brushes are what I would call a wear item, they may start off flat, but wear into the shape of the commutator. Those don't look bad to me, but I don't know the original length. What were the issues with the motor?

No experience about it, does the brush length matter?

Hi, I had a 45lbs Minn Kota motor with Power Drive foot pedal, the propeller did spin, left and right turn working.

I disassembled the motor, and measure the voltage between the brushes,  it shows about 12.5v, so I assume the food pedal working, and I measured the resistance between two coppers,  the value is the same, the springs look fine, so I assume the armature is working.

I heard most of issue will come from the brushes, but I only find the brush become a little bit curve instead of flat, is it the issue? any thought?

Hi,

I had a 90's 40 HP mercury,  when I drove on lake today, the reverse and forward with low speed all fine, when I try to speed up, I heard a very load noise from motor, and speed  won't change.

Thanks.

Since you ''had'' a boat I assume you'll be renting, ask for the one the HULK rented last time, he marked the 'hotspot' on the bottom of the boat with a big red X!

I had my own boat.

Hi,

I'll stay at pine vista this weekend, I had a boat, where is the hot spot nearby for bass/walleye ?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Hi,

How do you guys fish points? casting from shallow to deep? from deep to shallow? both?

I fish the edge with worm only, it seems not very productive.

peter

thank you for your quick reply.

I do have a garmin GPS and blunchart, fish finder as well, and can find some points, humps, my concern is the large mouth bass will stay there if there is no weeds?

Hi,

Did anyone fish a structure without weeds for largemouth bass?

I can't find any weeds deeper than 6' in rice, anyone fish largemouth bass in rice deeper than 6'?

Thanks.
