Replaced Trolling Motor, battery question

[ken_in_TN]

All, <br />I recently replaced my trolling motor. The thing is the old one was a 36 Volt motor and the new one is only 24 volt. What are the ramifications for leaving my batteries connected for a 36 volt trolling motor? To be honest, ever since I installed the new 24 volt motor, I have had nothing but problems with the batteries, especially the cranking battery.<br /><br />Thanks for any advice

Would you carry a ton and a half in a half ton truck?<br /><br />Lucky if you haven't fried the motor, too.<br /><br />Reconnect your batteries for 24 volts.
