Motor Guide Wireless Noise

[jayboy76]

Just bought a 2008 Lowe 175FM boat with a Motor Guide Wireless 55 # trolling motor. Seems to work just fine but I think the direction motor is noisy. Is there any lube procedure or is this just the way they are. My friend has a Minn Kota wireless and his isn't this noisy. The manual says nothing about maintenance except superficial cleaning. Any ideas?

I think the direction motor is noisy. Is there any lube procedure or is this just the way they are.:

I took it in to Boris Marine Electronics in North Fort Worth, and they said unfortunately they are noisy and there was no way to get into them to lube. Oh well! As I use it I get more used to it and it doesn't bother me as much. These guys are good and helpful. No charge for checking it out in their shop.
