Motorguide Bracket Nightmare
I've got a 24V, 82 lb thrust Motorguide Tour Edition. The motor is stuck down and will not retract no matter what I do. I started by shaking it, and then by using wedges to even it out. Finally, I got underneath the mount and after hours and hours of cutting the mounting screws and using wedges, was able to get the mount off the deck. I have tried everything, including making sure all the pins are even, standing on it and pulling the rope, using the screwdriver trick on the lower set of pins, etc. One side still won't release, but on the other side, I can actually see the pin come out. Any ideas before I take it to the repair shop? Thanks.
