Thread: Minnkota Maxxum issue

Sounds like a speed controller issue. Might take a look at the pedal and see if there's any cleaning you can do to anything you can get to. Past that, I suspect the board might be going bad if you're dead sure it's not loosing power connection.

Wannabe...

I've had my Maxxum for a long time and mine has never actually turned the prop at below 18 on the variable speed dial.

The prop is just barely creeping at 18 and increases normally and fluidly from 18 - 100 on the dial.

It's as if the "real Zero" starts at 18 and MinnKota (maybe) oriented the % markings on the variable speed dial wrong.

I just don't pay any attention to the % markings......
