1888, I have same problem with my MK PD Posted by Urban, Thu Apr-21-05 11:47 AM
I have had the same problem with the same trolling motor pedal with every one Ive owned, and I have owned a MK PD for over 15 years. Ive never been able to fix them myself, and usually just buy a new pedal (like $90).
I replaced mine a year ago, and now the "new one" is having a very hard time going forward. I literally have to stand straight on it with lots of weight (kills my legs by the end of the day). I am praying it works through the weekend.
John, if you know how to fix this problem please let me know. In the meantime Ill put a shim under the pedal (urbanredneck35@yahoo.com).
BTW Rob, my pedal once quit going right while on the lake. So I got my pliers and screwdrive out and went to work. Bad idea! The pedal literally blew up in my face, I forgot to unattach it from the battery! I had black soot all over me, and have no idea where my pliers ended up landing.
