Before seeking assistance at the help desk of your Side-Power dealer/distributor please perform these tests and make notes of
all measurements to ensure that they have as much information as possible to work on. Some error messages and alarms will
be shown in the panel display. Please refer to the control panel manual.
NB! All check points and solutions must be carried out after consulting the relevant information elsewhere in this manual to under-
stand how the system is intended to work. If you are unable to understand what to check, you must consult a professional.
Troubleshooting
EN
Check
Solution
Not able to turn panel on with the ON-buttons
Check S-link power supply
No reaction when operating the panel
A system scan must be executed. Refer to control panel manual
»
The thruster does not start at all or works only in one direction.
The flexible coupling between motor and driveshaft or the propeller
drive pin might have been damaged.
The SR(P)130 og SR(P)170 models have a flexible coupling that can
fail. The coupling is visible on the underside of the motor from inside
the boat. Run motor and observe the coupling. Replace coupling if
neccessary.
If it is required to turn the drive shaft by hand, deploy the thruster as
normal by turning the control panel on, wait until the thruster stops in
deployed position and turn the battery switch off. Remove the fan cover
on the motor to be able to turn it.
Is the propeller properly attached to the propeller shaft and is the drive
pin in place.
Attach or replace propeller and/or drive pin
Can the drive shaft be turned by hand with the electro motor removed.
If the gear leg is damaged, it is recommended to replace the complete
unit - not attempt to repair internal gears and bearings.

Refer to the control panel manual for detailed explanations of warning and error codes shown on panel display/LEDs.

The thruster has an unexpected low performance.
Check voltage at thruster battery when running.
If less than 10,5 V / 21V the thruster will not perform at specified effect.
Check that all the brush-springs sits correctly on the brushes in the
electromotor.
If one or more brushes are loose/has no tension from the brush-spring,
the performance will be low.
Check that the propeller, gearhouse and tunnel is free from growth/
barnacles etc.
If there is growth in the tunnel, this will disturb/block the waterflow and
especially barnacles on the propeller will greatly reduce performance.
