[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5685501, member: 2805"] How old? I'd pull prop, inspect seals, open up foot and inspect for any water damage. If any rust in the foot, order full service kit (comes with brushes, o rings, seals for about $25.) And clean armature. Use voltmeter to test commutation on armature. Minn kota makes an excellent YouTube video that is easy to follow for a full service of your foot. If that's all good, I'd suspect the full 12.7v isn't being delivered to the prop. Either a wiring issue (corroded connector), or old battery just delivering 12v (they are designed to run on 12.7v according to their technical expert when I talked with them troubleshooting my motor) [/QUOTE]
