Hello All.
I just installed my new Minn Kota power drive today. I used a Minn Kota two conductor quick connect at the bow. When plugging the two halfs together the connection actually snaps just a the end. I'm certain it is a very good connection. My problem is I have a great deal of difficulty disconnecting the plug. It is very tight. Even my 22 year old son can barely do it. I was thinking of using some grease but wonder if that will affect the electric flow. Any advice or pointers would be most appreciated. Thanks, Rick.

Thanks Silvertip. Put some dielectric grease on the plug and I can now just get it apart on my own which was the goal. Rick.
