    The foot pedal on my Ultrex went limp and I found these two pieces in the recessed foot well. But can’t figure out where they go or if I have all the missing pieces? Any suggestions, let me know… Thx

    That actually looks like the spacer that goes on the folding arm of the trolling motor. See part number 406.

    Thx for sending both iaboy and Munchy… I’m going through the diagrams and would have thought it would be a part of the foot pedal assembly, but you’re right Munchy it does look like the spacer in the folding arm. But then again, how would that effect the foot pedal and make it just hang loosely..?

    Going limp can never be a good thing I suppose, although i’m not sure what you mean. ???

    I’d say it was probably coincidence that you found those parts. Likely rattled loose and rolled in there.

    I’d look where the cables connect to the foot pedal. It likely came loose or broke. I’ve heard multiple cases of this happening. Is there still a warranty?

    I’m going to find out, it was installed almost exactly 2 years ago to the date..

    You should be good as the Ultrex has a 3 year warranty.

    Munchy, you are actually correct it was 406. But must have been coincidental, the cable broke too and that’s why the foot pedal wasn’t working. Parts ordered, under warranty, back on the water shortly (hopefully).
