Help IPilot RT80
 

My i pilot won't stop running. I have to unplug it to get it to stop. When I plug it back in it is running full speed.

The remote links with it and will steer it and even will anchor.
When I press + or - the remote shows that it's adjusting and and the unit beeps but nothing changes.

Anyone deal with this type of issue?

They are terrific. But they do break. Mine has only broken once, but it was in the shop for two weeks (warranty work)

Yea I love it but it's out of warranty.

Does this motor have a foot pedal?? If so it could just be that the foot pedal switch is stuck in the on position.

first i hear of this.. let us know the outcome

No foot pedal. Wish I had one though, maybe it would stop if I plugged one in.

I tried it again once I got home. Same thing as soon as I plug it in its running full speed.

The remote will turn it but wont slow it down or turn it off.

did you try taking the battery out of the remote and put it back?

btw, i would call minnkota. they have been helpful to me in the past.

First thing I did.

Busy day didn't catch minn Kota on the phone. I will try tomorrow

reset/reboot
 

I know there is a reset/reboot process that I think I got off the MK website. I keep a copy of it in my boat in case I ever need it (haven't needed it yet).

I had to replace my remote battery, that fixed it.

Well everything is pointing to the control board. Part is about 230 bucks. I'm going to try to change it over the weekend.

After changing remote battery, putting a foot control, changing the plug and checking the wiring from the batteries and several other ideas people gave me. Nothing worked so
I changed the control board. Works great now.
