Location: New Jersey | Hey Guys,
Anybody have a lot of experience with bow mount trolling motors. Every now and then, i will move my foot pedal and the motor wont turn. So, i open up the head and i can see that the 2 gears no longer mesh. It looks like the one above the shaft is falling down 1/4 inch. I then pop off the two gears, realign, and we are good to go for another few months. But it seems that tension is the only thing holding the 2 gears on plane. I cant figure out what is loose or broken that is letting the gears become un-meshed.
Anybody come across this?
Its a 74 thrust minn kota from about 2004 if that helps at all.
thanks, Rob
