My bow thruster is stuck on in the starboard direction. Actuates as soon as the thruster battery switch is turned on.
I think it’s probably a stuck solenoid. But I need to know the model number for the bow thruster.
I have a 2018 C30-CB.
I do not have any thruster documentation in my owners bags for the thrusters. But have downloaded the manual from Lwemar. And their pics look like mine.
Can you tell me the model numbers of the thrusters in my boat?
Thank you, Steve
 
The model should be somewhere on a label on the motor housing, which is under the forward berth. I can't say for sure because mine's a 2016 with the sidepower thrusters (SE40/125S), which is 88lbs thrust. The equivalent from lewmar would be the 140TT, in either the 2.0 or 2.2kW configuration.
 
Thanks for the reply.
Going down to the boat now to check it out.
I’ll post my finding for any others that might need to know.
 
The Lewmar bow thruster on my C-30 CB is a model 140TT 2.2kw 12v
The Lewmar part no. For the solenoid is B11126.
After messing with the connections a little, the thruster doesn’t always run as soon as the battery switch is turned on. But it sometimes does. I’m going to replace the solenoid. I’ll post if that is the solution or not once a replacement part is installed.
 
Nothing wrong with the thruster. The dual joysticks were replaced under warranty 4 years ago. The new joysticks are a different design than the originals and required adapter modules. The blue box modules were located under the command bridge dash. Easy plug wire change. I bought them on Amazon for $158 each delivered. The modules came in bags marked Rev. 3. Hopefully they’ll last longer than the ones installed previously.
 
I may have the same issue. I'm having trouble finding the modules on Amazon. Would you happen to have a part number?
