    Why is my Lewmar Pro Marine Equipment operating sluggishly?
    • K
      Kimberly MorenoJul 28, 2025
      If your Lewmar Marine Equipment is operating sluggishly, several factors could be at play. First, check if the windlass is overloaded and ease the load. Ensure the battery is well-charged. If the issue persists, measure the voltage across the motor leads while the windlass is on. A significant voltage drop indicates undersized or corroded cables, poor connections, or resistance in the battery isolation switch or solenoid. Finally, verify that the voltage is correct; if it is, the motor may be defective and require replacement.

    What to do if my Lewmar Pro Marine Equipment fails to operate?
    • A
      Arthur SweeneyAug 5, 2025
      If your Lewmar Marine Equipment fails to operate, begin by checking for voltage at the input terminals of the contactor and switch(es). If there's no voltage, inspect the circuit breaker/isolator switch and any fuses. Next, while operating the switch, check for voltage at the positive switch terminal on the solenoid. If there's no voltage, the switch or its wiring is likely defective. If voltage is present, keep the switch activated and check for voltage at the main output terminal on the contactor. If there's no voltage, inspect the contactor coil ground circuit; if it's okay, replace the contactor. Finally, check the voltage at the motor. If voltage is present but the motor doesn't run, the motor is defective.
