Thank you!!

Made it look easy! My middle black piece that’s built it to the cover that holds the middle white gear in place broke off, have to replace the whole head because of that. Glad you posted this

Thank you for the video, not to be a critic, I believe there is a tension screw on the foot pedal control to allow the cables some slack. You must have had a screw left over for the white clamp that held the wires in place , you mounted on the cable holding bracket not where it was removed from.

Thank you, gonna give it a try..😊

Having parts shipped right now to redo my minn kota edge. Thanks for the video. I also have to redo the upper shaft bearing also so just going to replace both of them.

Allright! Lot cheaper than buying a new trolling motor. Good luck with your project.

Very informative. Thanks for the info. I’m always safety conscious-Do I need to unhook it from the battery, (are those hot wires,)or not a concern

Thank you! Yes- unhook it from the battery before beginning work

There must be 8 videos on this repair on KZread. They all break in the same place. When I bought the replacement part on Amazon they said they had sold 50 so far this month ( it was mid June). There must be a design problem here. What gives Minn Kota? My motor couldnt have had 25 hours on it.

This looks like a complete nightmare to me. I need to replace the tilt bracket but 8 believe I will need to do the same process. Thanks for the video

It was not as hard as it looked. I was surprised that the new style head fits the same as the old style head. Hope the video helps with your project. Thanks for watching.

Need help. When reinstalling cable gear and 4 screw bracket that holds cables down my cables were now too short. Bracket was about 1/4 inch short of holes matching up. I noticed that yours were also but you edited out that part. How did you get bracket to match up. I even put original head back on and cable bracket still wouldnt match up. What to do??

I was able to get everything to line up eventually. I didnt use any special tricks- just pulled on the cables with some force. (I probably edited out the grunt while I was doing that!)

I can see that there is 2 different replacement sets, a red and a yellow? Whats the differens??

@ProWrenching

The yellow is the newer style head. My trolling motor had the head with the red indicator. I bought the newer style with the yellow indicator and it fit. I think the only difference is the style.

Thanks for this video. If I don't have heat shrink, can I get by with electrical tape?

@ProWrenching

5 ай бұрын

Yes. Heat shrink is best b/c it seals out the moisture and prevents corrosion, but electrical tape would also work.

One last question, I hope. I am going to do this when I take it out of the water and it's on the trailer. Better to do it with the troller down, or pulled up?

I bought mine from Northland Marine ph. 715-546-2333. You might try calling them to see if they can tell you which one you need.

We have this one also. But it’s stuck in high speed. Control module is new. Any suggestions ?

I have not run into that particular issue. However, I would suspect the multi position speed switch is not functioning correctly.
