silver one Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 If there is a switch that controls it on and off then it is the switch. If the switch is in the off position and it kicks on then the switch is bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimcr Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Ali if you have a targa check under the dash and make sure no wires are touching where they shouldn't be. its very crowded under there. the control is on the back of the switch. I would check there first. then check the switch to make sure it has not shorted out. A little water where it doesnt' belong could be the problem . If nothing else pull the fuse for a few days , then try it again , it may be moisture too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rascal Trophy Fishing Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Just curious Ali, are you fishing an aerator in fresh or salt water? If fresh, where, and which bait, minnows? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
