Motorguide wiring advice

Anybody got a 12/24 56 lbs brute? I’m trying to help a friend install a used one and need to know which wire goes where. I know how to wire up the batteries in series and know where to hook the red from the motorguide. I just don’t know for sure where the white wire and black are supposed to go to have it wired correctly for 12/24 operation. Thanks.

Spoon,

Thanks very much guys. I hooked his TM up to my batteries tonight and it seems to run fine. Found out today that he only had it hooked to a 12V battery charger and he hadn’t hooked up the white wire at all. Will return it to him along with a copy of the correct wiring diagram.

Rick K, I told Fogman what I heard this afternoon. Good luck. I don’t think he’ll need his spoons tomorrow.

Make sure if you add on to the length of the wires to increase the wire size one guage!! Sure will make a difference in the operation of the motor! and it will last longer also.
