I accept a 2007 Skeeter I Class with a built in Minn Kota iv bank charger and ane banking concern is not charging.

Does anyone know who repairs these or knows "how to" repair them?

I talked with All Star in Dallas and they said they are sealed units and I needed to buy a new one. Virtually $400! Yikes!!

Capeesh whatsoever help.

Call the mfg. I know Dual Pro gives y'all a real restriction if one of their units fails. Maybe MK will also.

Sealed units and no servicable parts inside. Take you swapped the leads with the "bad" bank to i with the good bank. Sometimes a battery will discharge to the point it doesn't turn the charger on

Yeah I did try that but no luck.

In that location are two wires coming from the charger, one white and the other black. They pb to an inline fuse holder on each wire and then change to a blackness and a red wire from the other end of the fuse holder to the battery.

I cut back the white wire back a piffling thinking to supervene upon the inline fuse holder thinking maybe it was bad. Instead I constitute a green wire that appears shorted and information technology seems to be either a "thermal fuse" or a �capacitor� of some sort.

Any idea what that is????

Just a follow up: I talked with Minn Kota today and the service tech said the green wire is a "thermistor" which regulates the charge and prevents overheating and if broken the charger would not piece of work. He also said this is the offset time he has e'er heard of ane of these "thermistors" going bad.

They are sending me a new cable to supercede mine at "no charge".

WooHoo!!!!

That's customer service!!!!!!!!!

Merely a follow up in case someone here has the same trouble someday:

I got the new cable from Minn Kota today and spliced it in and at present the battery charger works on all 4 banks. It was the "thermistor".

Thanks to MinnKota for the support!!!!!!!!!!
