    Default How many of you have a "circuit breaker" inline of your trolling motor


    and if so what one do most of you use ? This is in reference to a 24v unit.

    Inline where? I have two 50 amp back in the back where the wires slit one for one battery and one for the other. I can send a pic this weekend if you want.

    these are the type with the reset on the side and post connection

    Kdavid1, the diagrams that I have saw have the circuit breaker with the TM connected to one side and then another cable coming off the circuit breaker to + (positive) side of the battery that the TM was connected to

    Thats right all you are doing is breaking the hot wire ( positive) battery lead that goes to the TM......Place your circuit breaker inline close to the battery. I have mine mounted on the wall inside my battery compartment right next to my TM batterys.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.
