[QUOTE="ccm, post: 363163, member: 13447"] The Big Foot switches tend to wear out in a in a year to two years because the rubber part that covers the contact will degrade due to sun & weather exposure. When the switch wears out replace it with a TH Marine footswitch ( they invented the momentary foot switch for trolling motors ), they do cost more ( around $25 ) but they will last a decade or more because they are fully sealed & weather resistant. Last year my dad upgraded to a Fortrex 101 Foot control for his bass boat & he gave me the two TH Marine foot switches that had been on the boat for close to a decade. They still work with no issues at all. [/QUOTE]
