I am stunned that your Minn Kota service center can't work on it while it's on the boat. I had my Ultrex installed by an authorized service center. I see you are in Lockport. I know it would be...
I just installed a 93SV on my RT188 console a couple weeks ago. I also used a Precision Sonar steering wheel spacer and I made my own mount for about $11, but I have a sheet metal brake, welder, and...
Excellent info. Also, I asked Interstate if they could recommend a charger and I just got a response from them that they have had "great success" with Schumacher marine chargers. And I have...
Very good, thank you CatFan!
Unheated, attached garage. Leaving in the boat is not an option. For the winter the boat goes in a shed with no electricity that is not near my home . I've kept my motorcycle and hot rod batteries...
Last winter I put my Interstate SRM-27 on a Schumacher SEM-1562A charger for the winter (1.5A, microprocessor-controlled w/float). By spring my two year old battery was toast. I did use the charger...
I'm sure that is good advice but my current home lake is 5000 acres. The largest lake I fish is 12000 acres but it's "fingers" rather than an open lake. I just don't have to use the big motor...
I will remember this when the time comes. Thanks!
Thanks for all the help.
I have a 2016 Ranger RT188 and I have gotten extremely annoyed that the steering wheel is a quarter turn to the left when the motor is straight. I was going to pull the wheel and line it back up...
Solved! Interstate replaced it and I'm all green. Thanks for the suggestions.
will do, thanks
Forgive the new guy if this is a stupid question. I just upgraded from a 12V TM to a 24V. I have two new, identical group 27 Interstates hooked up. I've tested the TM on the trailer and it works...
Wow! That is spectacular. Congrats
I misspoke when I wrote that. Thank you for correcting me. If it's tripping all the time I will be sending you some money! Thanks for all the help you offer!
Perfect. We shall see if I'm tripping all the time or not. Thanks for the help.
I have a 2016 Ranger RT188 that came with a Maxxum 55. I just bought a Maxxum 80 from a friend for $200 (he upgraded) and I'm getting ready to install it. I know my boat is wired with 6GA already...
Thanks. I'm more comfortable with all leads connected if it doesn't shorten battery life. I appreciate the help.
In my thread posted earlier today I learned that my current TM battery is a paperweight. I will be buying a new Group 27 tomorrow. I noticed when I bought the boat that dealer hooked up TWO...
Thanks for the warning. Time to make a new plan.
Well not a happy day, then. Thanks
Yup, one side was a little low at the end of the year so I filled up before putting on the winter bank.
That very well could be. But I'm wondering...I bought the boat last year and it's a 2016 with the original TM battery in it. I was horribly disappointed in the TM performance. Yes, the 18ft....
I will be going out for the first time this year with a failing TM battery. The highest reading I can get from it is 10.84 and that's fresh off the winter float charger. So what should I expect? ...
