Jeff, if you could get hold of a seperate ducer in any way, do it and try that. It just sounds like you're getting an interference problem, or your u.s. is funky. I remember reading about complaints when minn-kota first introduced the u.s., but not much after a few years of getting the bugs worked out. If you can't borrow a ducer, call Vexilar and talk to a tech and explain the problem you're having. It might just need to have the brushes cleaned.

It does sound like it needs to have the brushes replaced. The last I heard they went for about 40$ & you put them in or they will for about 70$.
It could be some sort of interfernce problem too.
Have you tried to use it all by itself without hooking anything else to it?
you can hit my Vexilar link & then hit the help button.All of the info you need is there including the direct phone # to them.
They want to help you if you need it.
