Better read up on the Varimax... That's a common problem. Stuck in wide open. I have one sitting in my shop for 2 years. Used it twice & crapped out. They are junk!!!! Take it back if you just bought it!

Lets us know what you find out please. They had a recall but I didn't know anything about it & it's been 2 years at least since I bought it. I'd like to at least get it fixed to have as a spare. The durn thing is practically brand new

BassYakR 04-07-2013 09:14 PM

Sure will

I had to buy a new control board a few years ago. I searched on the net and saved 25+% [plus travel cost] over buying it from Jennings (?). No one in Lake Charles had the part in stock.

Take the cover off your TM and you should see a part no. on the board.

BassYakR 04-08-2013 05:53 AM

Oh ok... I have the board off already... Imma look for a part number

I bought a new control board from Lake Charles Tackle. And for the record I hated my Motor Guide.

BassYakR 04-08-2013 06:51 AM

Ive always heard ppl hating minn kota... I like this one... Its my fault it broke... I knew to wire in a fuse... But i was in a hurry and now its gonna cost me.

found out that u cannot just replace the board in the head... you have to replace the whole head. Price at superior supply is 170! holy ****! lol.... found out the part number tho.... and ive found online stores selling them for about 100bux.

Lake Chuck Duck 04-08-2013 08:26 PM

Telling you I bought the part for my motor guide at LCT. It was the board with the part that turns for speed. Was like $50 or less.

BassYakR 04-08-2013 08:41 PM

It was a varimax?

Call Craig Doyle @ 529-0333. He repairs them and might have the part in stock. He's located off of Lake St south of town.
