Accepted Answer

Polish Pilot- We don't sell parts on this site. We give advice that saves you money by making the right decision or allows you to make the repair yourself.

On the footpeddle it's not worth rebuilding them. Go to this site-
http://www.northlandmarine.com/MinnKotaMotorControlBoard24VPDAP.htm
And you can just buy a new foot control.

one thing to try before buying a new control is to take each wire where it connects to the box and grab it and push it toward the box like your tyring to compress the wire. Do this while the motor is turned slightly on. If you get a little motor responce then the problem is in the wire conection and you can just repair this.

Otherwise it's worth it to just purchase the new parts and not have to fix it again in three months.

Thanks for asking.
