Brand new,,,,W-75,,,,wireless,,,,75# thrust,,,,saltwater,,,,24-volt?.
Motor is mounted on bow of 1972,,,,21? Boston Whaler,,,,center console ?.
Set up codes for both the wireless foot pedal,,,,and wireless hand held remote?.
Wireless Foot pedal will not function on deck of Whaler?.
Wireless foot pedal will intermittently control motor,,,,if held over my head,,,,within 6? of motor?.
Wireless Hand held remote will control motor,,,,if held at shoulder height,,,,and within 8? of motor?.
Beyond 8? of bow toward stern,,,,hand held remote must be held over my head to control motor?.
When at the stern,,,,hand held wireless remote,,,,held over head,,,,intermittently controls motor?.
Many years ago I had a,,,,motor guide great white wireless,,,,mounted on this whaler,,,,which worked perfectly?.
This motor is virtually useless?.
Has any one encountered such problems?.????
Can anyone offer advice as to how to make this motor wireless controls function correctly?.

Brand new unit = warranty issue. Let the manufacturer deal with it.
