Fished Nada FJ for 4 hrs and had to give it up.. Trolling motor was coming apart from prior incident, made it til this evening when we were catching em..
What happened.....what kind of TM?
That sucks
Sucks to be me.... Need a good MK man
Having a bit with mine too--trolled for about 1 1/2 Friday afternoon then used it Sat. at the FJ and batteries were pretty much dead by 12 oclock (just used it for positioning). course they are about 3 or 4 yrs old now-so time for new one's
What was this prior incident?
BigBlue, it does suck to be you rite bout now.
KDAVID1, if you pull cranks you might want to look at some 12v golf cart batts. I trolled alot Saturday cause the Merc was sick, when I hooked the charger up this afternoon they were still 84% charged. Pulling cranks they are the BOMBB!!!
Say BB, what model,is that? I have a MK in the barn that might be the ticket. I smoked it and didn't want to spend the $ to fix it, just saved it for parts. It's not cracked!!!
Blue there is a place in Memphis called Appliance reapir service don't know anything about them other than they are an authorized repair center.Quote:

I didn't touch it...promise. And appliance repair is the shop that has our trolling motor, and I will happily vouch for em. I was on the phone with em last Tuesday insisting he get it fixed in time (without the part) and he moved heaven n earth to try to help, even said a curse word or two in frustration when he discovered there wasn't nothin they could do. Good people, and we will use em again.
Thanks for the info--will look into it.Quote:

Parts are ordered and should be here Wednesday.. $35 shipping and all.. Sure a lot cheaper than I first imagined
Glad that worked out for you.Quote:

Find the right website and order it yourself.

Had a rookie in the boat... Lol... The head is made in 2 pieces and the bottom one cracked(just plastic) and it finally fell apart the other day when it got abused by another Rookie mishandling it.. It's a pretty easy fix just have to remove head pieces, disconnect the cables and wiring and put the new parts on... Thank God it wasn't something more serious..Quote:
