[QUOTE="Up Y'oars, post: 303522, member: 764"] Yeah, the batteries are at 13.1v on the float charge, so I know they are accepting a charge. Took the boat down to Interstate Battery and had them bring out another battery hooked up to the Minnkota charger and watched the power transfer via voltmeter. We needed to know that the charger was actually pumping out juice on either of the two banks. They also placed the two batteries at the end of a daisy chain hooked up to a charger and, again, we watched the numbers rise on the voltmeter. It just proved that the batteries are okay and the charger is okay. So why do I continue to have connection problems with the remote control? We concluded that the circuit breakers must be the culprit (shown above by TyMurrey). When I got home I removed both of the circuit breakers (thermo controlled, I believe) and hooked everything back up. Deployed the Terrova and attempted to operate via remote... "f" cold once again. I'm friggin' baffled. Just going to take the damn thing down to Scheels and see what the repair will cost. Control Panel goes for $220 online, so I assume the bill will be near $400. May be time to consider just getting a new Terrova or Ulterra? [/QUOTE]
