Minn Kota 55 maxxum transom is not working. It is the variable speed model 12 volt.. I can't tell you what year, it came with my boat.
I had the boat out twice since I bought it. The motor worked for 4 hours then stopped on my first trip. I thought it was just the battery drained down.
I went out last night with the kids and hooked up the motor, it would not respond. I checked the conections and when I pressed the battery indicator, it showed the battery as fully charged.
It will make a slight click noise. I removed the prop and brush, all apeared okay and was clean.
I removed the head cover and the controller board does not show any burn marks like the relays fried.
How can I test this to troubleshoot it? The controller boards are pricey and I think that just buying parts without knowing is foolish.
Thanks
