What if the remote isn't working? Can I control the trolling motor manually by hand?

If the CoPilot remote is not working, you can manually control the Minn Kota trolling motor using the foot pedal. However, based on the provided context, there may be issues depending on how the foot pedal and CoPilot system are connected. If the foot pedal is plugged directly into the motor without the CoPilot attached, it can steer left/right but may not run the prop. If the foot pedal is connected through the CoPilot, the prop runs, but steering is lost.
To manually control the motor: 1. Disconnect the CoPilot system. 2. Plug the foot pedal directly into the trolling motor. 3. Use the foot pedal to steer left/right. 4. If the prop does not run, check for a clicking sound, which may indicate an electrical issue.
If these steps do not restore full manual control, further troubleshooting or professional service may be required.
