i have a minn kota edge that stopped working,yesterday i noticed the housing was very hot when putting the boat on the trailer and this morning i went out and the motor does nothing.I have voltage to the foot pedal.I'm wondering if the windings went on it and maybe there is an internal overload that tripped and doesn't reset.If i leave the motor on now it doesn't get warm either.  it's only 4 1/2 yrs old ....any help!!...i'm 2 hrs away from a dealer.....

never mind,i was back out in the garage and it's now tripping the reset breaker.....back to motor guide i guess!!!!!! 2nd mind kota kota i've had problems with over the yrs...

I' about to get my third Minn Kota Endura Max 55 in as many months. Massive failures, I'm selling it when it arrives and buying a Motor Guide.

The service rep attitudes start to suck when they have to replace a third motor. 

What is so different about Motor Guides? I think all electric tms this size burn out or fail eventually.

I was going to say your problem is that you have a Minn Kota haha.
