Hey Guys,
I was hooking up and engine mount Minn kota 160 tonight. Basically 2 80 pound thrust motors. In my excitement to see them spin tonight I was working in low light and hooked one up backwards. Neg where pos should have been on one of the motors. When I tried the control one spun the backward one did not. I saw my mistake when I checked back and put things right but it is still not spinning. Did I burn that motor out do you think? I swapped leads just to check that it wasn't wires and still just the one spun.
ny thoughts here? What should I try next?

DC motor reverse polarity should not be the issue...almost has to be something else imho......
