Hey all,
I have a 70PD Minn Kota PowerDrive v1 from about 2007-2008.
My last fishing trip the motor stopped working, when you press the peddal, you hear *Click* as always, but the motor doesn't spin.
I took it to a Minn Kota Authorized service center and they said the "Main Board" blew and would need to be replaced..
They said it will be just under $200 to repair.
I looked up on ebay for PowerDrive main board and found what I believe is the part they said needs to be replaced and it was only ~$70..
I've been wanting to add the CoPilot so I can use the wireless remote. I am wondering if adding the CoPilot replaced the very main board that I need to replace? Or if I will still have to replace the main board to use the CoPilot?
Thanks,
-TheChad
