[QUOTE="benjineer, post: 479471, member: 3833"] A little more progress. I also think I got my old trolling motor patched up. It’s an MG SWDS54. It’s been in storage for years, and I finally decided to fix it or junk it. The gearing for the electric steer was rusted up. I got that cleaned and working. Prop would come on sometimes and sometimes not, but you could start it by hand. It just had corrosion on the armature. Sanded smooth and that started working. I put a seal kit in it last night. It still didn’t act right, and I’ve been thinking the foot pedal had problems, but I wasn’t sure. I bit the bullet and bought a wireless remote kit on EBay for $75. That did the trick. Hopefully I can get some good use out of it this time around. I put just under $100 in it this time. $1,452.66 spent total so far with the current work. The biggest expenses were 3 sheets of pvc board, an active-imaging 3-in-1 transducer, and the new steering system. [/QUOTE]
