Minn Kota Ultrex 36v Grinding Noise Repair - Armature Repair

[@stevenj9251]

On the magnets, theres a small groove on the metal keeper, thats where you can attatch the spring so theres no pressure on the magnets when you slide it on the armature. Then once you get it started you can ust a small screwdriver to re engage the magnets instead of fighting with them

@@stevenj9251 good info hopefully I never have to use it though haha

[@jasonwalden5001]

Brushes. Not magnets.

[@stevenj9251]

​​@@haydennewberryfishingalso, if you start noticing electrosis, chiping of the paint and oxidation, thats also a sign that water has gotten into the head of the trolling motor

[@stevenj9251]

​@@jasonwalden5001yes brushes, you are correct

[@billyhaney5002]

Thanks for sharing. When or we going to see you back in the water.

[@haydennewberryfishing]

Im thinking I’ll be able to start back with some on the water videos really soon. I’m working on getting the new boat set up right now. I’ll definitely have more time to work on videos now that I’m not spending all my time on the house.

Brief suggestion from the archives: when you install brush springs, leave them "locked and loaded" on the outside of the holders, but not in place. Then, as the armature passes the brush on each side, use your pick to slide it into place. That procedure came from your great grandpa when I was about 12 years old. No telling how many cuss words it saved me over all these years 😂

[@haydennewberryfishing]

@@CactusJack1021 I could definitely see where that would save some headache

[@methods-SE]

Soo many flavors, ......figure by now Minn Kota would have the Brushless solved. Cheaper.

I had a wedding ring similar to that in hard metal. Scratched up every item I had. Looks like yours (his) may be a brass amalgamation.

This man has a 36V, we are working on a 12V running 24V lithium -!!- Note the DAMN BIGGER everything. Hrmmm.....

[@methods-SE]

He is working the Effective Palm Hammer, watch the Value Shops for wooden mallet, rubber mallet, plastic mallet, various hammers of different density and blow. They are called "Soft Blow hammer". Very useful.

[@methods-SE]

I speak because I once used the "palm blow hammer" until I was injured, after being injured. This was during a live in renovation. Endless hard work until you succeed or die. I used my wrist brace as a hammer** ... To date, no regrets. GO BIG OR GO HOME.

Great video what was the orientation of the fwd and aft shaft seal?

[@haydennewberryfishing]

I really can’t say I know for sure. I just watched how the old ones were in when I removed them and copied that with the new ones. I do remember there is a cardboard ring that was in between them that there is an opening for on each one. Idk if that helps but that all I can remember about the orientation.

[@haydennewberryfishing]

If you look in the video at 10:35 I start talking about the shaft seals.

[@pinballjunky7117]

Two ADDS in the first minute. Bad BS Another 2 ADDS at 5:30 unnecessary 👎👎👎👎👎

[@haydennewberryfishing]

@@pinballjunky7117 ads are there so I get something in return for showing you how to do a job for free.

[@pinballjunky7117]

@haydennewberryfishing KZbin pays you for how many views you get. The better the content, the more views you get. Very unusual that many ADDS. There are better videos then yours

[@haydennewberryfishing]

@@pinballjunky7117 no KZbin pays you for ad views. When I select to monitize a video KZbin automatically places ads into the video. Any videos you are watching with no ads at all are not monitized.

[@changlorderyang]

Did you have issue with the prop spinning fast then slow down then fast?

[@haydennewberryfishing]

@@changlorderyang no everything was working fine other than the noise.
