The one in the head?
If you have integrity, nothing else matters. If you don't have integrity,

Current leaking to ground. First thing I would check is if there's water in the motor.

Yes the 3A in the head

What do you mean by noise reduction grounding?

Will this interference blow that 3amp fuses? I know when the fuse is blown when I see the interference on my DI which is sourced from the TM mounted transducer.

Including the battery charger be sure to disconnect the trolling motor before turning on the charger

Thank You Leon Pugh
Thanks for the info. I’ll look at this stuff next week when I get back to my boat.

As Catfan (John) said, if there is any connection between cranking ground and trolling motor ground it could cause the fuse to blow. It is possible to make a connection between the two, but the connection has to be made to the trolling motor battery that carries ground to the trolling motor.

Mine has also blown the fuse twice in the last 6 months. I found a broken grounding strap on my Mercury and have been having a white powder on the skeg and edges of the trolling motor and the jack plate. Could that broken strap have caused it?

I’ll start taking it apart tomorrow. I put a volt meter on the trolling motor plug while charging and it had 44.1 volts. That’s too high isn’t it?
thanks.
