Well i know how you feel to take it apart and try to fix it.
Last piece of advice. You could make it worse if you can’t put it back together. Since its out of warranty the person who will service it has some wiggle room on your charges. Warranty service has to be submitted to Minnkota for reimbursement/payment to repair person/shop.Get an estimate and decide to repair or upgrade.

Minnkota has a special at the outlet terrova ipilot 60″ 1449.99 or $67.00/mo. x 24 mo.No foot pedal.2 yr warranty. 2017 and newer has new technology.WORRY FREE!

good luck and happy father’s day!

Thanks for taking the time to reply, and hope you had good fathers day as well!

Checked that, seems correct per manual. Thanks!

Could be. The previous owner may have hit something with it. Minn Kota advises it could be something bent in the trim module.

I just have a really hard time resisting the urge to take something apart!
