Trolling Motor Problem
"BIG FISH 2006" wrote in message ... I replaced my 41 lb. thrust 12/ 24 v johnson trolling motor with a new Minn Kota A T 65 24 volt 65 lb. thrust. It runs fine on low speed, but when I turn it up to max it blows the short stop circuit. the breaker is a 40 amp. do I need to go to a bigger amp or is something wired wrong? Yep, you need heavier wiring. When you turn the speed up, the heavier draw is overheating the wires and blowing the circuit breaker. Replace it with # 6 wiring. -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com
