Hi, I hope I can ask j this on this sight but im sure someone on here can help me. My minn kota autopilot trolling motor stopped steering the other day. The thrust works fine, just the steering. Has anyone else had this problem and would it be in the for peddle or head? Thank you very much.

The foot peddle would be a good place to start looking. Check all the connections, if you have a ohm meter ohm the wires from the foot peddle to the motor that turns the unit.

Hey Curt I would bet that if you called cabelas they would still have the co-pilot in one of their stores. Worth a try if you still want it.

[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000]Curt,
They are still available on both Amazon and eBay. But they probably won't be for very long.[/#][/font]

Just about every where I've checked on line are out of them or they have been discontinued, the ones I have found are either not for my motor or I'm just not sure they are the correct one, so I'm going to call minn kota tomorrow, with my serial # and make sure before I place the order. I think the one I need is a 1866100 model # but they say it goes on the motor with a square plug, mine is flat(but maybe that's the same as square to them), the other model has a round plug and that is the wrong one for sure. Thanks for the input guys.
