ADvANCED TROUBLESHOOTING
Motor is deployed with the motor lower unit less than 14-15
inches below the aluminum base extrusion, it will not steer in
either direction and the motor lower unit will not run.
CAUSE: Motor is in the “prop lockout region”. This feature is used
to eliminate the chance of the motor lower unit or prop contacting
the boat hull. For more information refer to the Adjusting Trim
section of either the i-Pilot or i-Pilot Link manual. If using the
Foot Pedal to trim the motor, it must be in Ulterra Mode. Learn
more about Modes and Foot Pedal operation in the Using the Foot
Pedal section of the manual.
Ulterra motor does not properly position the motor lower unit in
the Park Position when stowing. The motor lower unit is not
turned to orient it at 90 degrees relative to the motor mounting
base so that it lays horizontally when the Ulterra motor pulls the
motor on to the motor ramps.
CAUSE: The Ulterra motor has been deployed, power switched
OFF or disconnected, and the motor lower unit may have manually turned by hand, or rotated as a result of hitting an obstruction. When
this occurs the Ulterra motor’s Park Position is lost and the motor lower unit will no longer be oriented properly when stowing.
