Default 36V trolling motor plug
Looking for one of these. Can anyone help me? All I can find are the 4 prong Marinco plugs and I need a 3 prong plug for my motorguide TM.

Edit I also noticed that the Motorguide TM only has 2 wires coming out of it. Seems like it would be 3, right?

Try Lowe's , it looks like a household appliance plug.

It is a Marineco plug.

I believe Academy stocks them

There should be a model number on it. It should start with LP-. You can get one at most electrical parts houses.

If you don't ever take the Trolling motor off your boat, do yourself a favor and "hard" wire it. Using a plug will aways cause problems.

If you use the plug......you should buy 2 and keep one as a spare. You will need it in a year or so later.

I spray mine down pretty heavy with Corrosion X to help protect it.

Fill up the female plug with dielectric grease. It will not rust or corrode. Refill every year .
