Dwreck Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 My trolling motor has been making this very loud squealing noise when I set the speed anywhere between 1/3 to max speed. It only does it while in the water and makes no noise when its out. Has anyone ever had this issue and what was the cause/solution? As you can imagine it gets pretty annoying while trying to sneak up on bass or trying to fight current. It is an 82lb Digital Tour. Thanks in advance for the help! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVvimPin1Jw Quote
james 14 Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Video won't work on my phone but check your prop for any irregularities as they can cause it to make noise. Quote
BrettD Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Pull the prop off and make sure there is no line wrapped around the shaft behind the prop. Quote
Dwreck Posted June 21, 2013 Author Posted June 21, 2013 I already pulled the prop an there was nothing obstructing it. Quote
MichBassMan Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 It sounds to me like a sheared or missing pin at the prop. Quote
