I have a 112 terrova and with the boat setting still I push anchor and it will set there for a few seconds and then the motor will increase to 10 and carry me about 20 to 30 ft away from where I pushed anchor and shut off. Batteries are good and remote battery is good. What could be causing my problem. Thanks
How Old is this Terrova? If it is BT then you can adjust boat scale.
It is a 2014 model
best advice i have is to stop the forward movement then press spot lock, are you sure your not moving 0.8 mph when you hit anchor? if you are the sot you anchored on is 20-30 feet away in a couple seconds

You say it moves AWAY from your spot lock ?Originally Posted by markstat
Then totally shuts off it's spot lock function ??
Mine had done that it was the battery in the remote. You said it was good, easiest fix change battery first.
Yes I wasn’t moving cause that was the first thing I made sure of
Yeah its crazy it may go in any direction and if you don’t pay attention it will sling you out.
Ok thanks I will check that
It may take me to the bank or to middle of river or turn 180.
THIS FIXED MY PROBLEM: I had real trouble with my Terrova spot lock and navigation. I called HB and finally got someone who could help. Two things: I installed a puck with HS and most importantly...HB told me that under the cover of the head, where you have the main red/black power wires, you must twist those around each other...they have an interference issue there that messes up the compass in the head for the lock/navigation functions. Assuming they've fixed that in the new models. My Terrova is from like the second year they made the IPilot Link on them.
Thanks for the update..
Shouldn't tell this, but hey if you can't laugh at yourself ------------------
When I took the head off of my first Terrova and saw those twisted wires I thought (Well-- BS) So I proceeded to fix them right.
Found out later that's the way they're supposed to be..
