    Default Min kota auto pilot


    got this with a used auto pilot . it has something to do with the speed controle. does not plug into the motor . it looks like a plug that was used on a old depth finder i had some years ago.

    What does that say on it? Looks like high something. Any other numbers or writing on it?

    Sage, That may be a speed control for and engine mount MinnKota. They make an engine mount electric motor that bolts to the lower unit of an outboard or I/O drive.

    When deployed make sure the shaft is within 5° of being vertical. Some of the first AP models are very sensitive to that. If that is good PM me your e-mail addy and I'll send you Minnkota's service manual.
