Which wires go to the steering motor?
There are two wires, black and white coming out of the steering motor control I did not snap a picture of them. Came from the factory with the steering wires from the iPilot head hooked up to those wires.
The yellow and green wires that are coming out of the control board in the base of the trolling motor were just heat shrinked off but when I hook up the steering motor wires to them nothing happens. I measure about 4 volts from the yellow and green wires coming out of the control board in the base of the trolling motor that were capped off from the factory when I try to turn left or right on the foot pedal.
Meter the yellow and green wires to the foot control board to the power board. You should get continuity. Of course with the foot cable hooked up. YOU will have to penetrate the rtv on the foot board.
IS the brown wire with spade connector on the power control board plugged into anything? IS he red wire with bullet connector on the power control board connected to anything?
Check continuity between brown wire on power control board to the black wire on the foot control board.
I await all these answers before we proceed. There are gotta know questions.
The foot pedal is a newer generation than mine. Works the same though. Your pedal is much improved over the one I had.
There are several models of foot pedals and control boards. This can be confusing. That is why I need to know exactly what you have.
I have a new idea I am going to try not sure if it will work or not but I will keep you posted.
Good. I gotta work on my boat this week.
