Mine bounce so much, it was causing damage inside the head.
1) wire came unplugged.
2) metal connector on end of wire broke.
3) wire broke off where it connected to the metal connector. Problem was not corrosion.
4) 5 speed switch move and disconnected from handle.
5) bottom portion of the head cover cracked where it bolts to the shaft. Replace cover.
All these problems made for much aggravation while out on the water. Over a years time.... I only had one or 2 fishing trips..... without the TM breaking.
I cut off about 10" of the shaft and secured the head. I have not had any problem since. See pic in my last post.
