Default Trolling motor

I have a Minn Kota 55 hand operated troll motor. The DPDT rocker switch
that does the forward/reverse broke into pieces. It is rectangular. Has
anyone changed one of these, and do you think I can find one at NAPA, or do
I have to purchase the gold plated expen$ive one from MK?

Yep, this is the guy that likes little boys because he doesn't know how to
talk to a girl.

You should be registered.

Let me explain how your computer works. Open a browser. You know one of
the programs that you look at the naked pictures on. Then find Google and
look up switches and see who sells them.

Maybe you can find one online, or talk to a boat supply store and see
if they have an aftermarket one, or maybe know how to adapt one from
another make. Otherwise you'll probably have to go back to MK .

Look on the side of the sw case and see if there are numbers or a name like
Cherry. Napa does carry some, or look at Digi-key or McMasters Car for one
with the same dimensions.

Been weathered in, and recovering, so haven't been out, really. Just asking
in case another person had the same experience. I believe I can find a
replacement/substitute.
