I want to modify a Minn Kota C2 30 bass type trolling motor.  These are
sold by Walmart for $99.  The motor has a twist handle to switch between 5
forward speeds and 3 reverse.  The manual shows the switch inside and they
are sold on ebay for $15.

I purchased one and connected it to a 12 volt battery.  It has 5 posts
(Batt+, Batt-, Black, White, Red and Yellow).

I came up with a table for voltages on each terminal of each switch
position but some of the switch positions have the same voltages on the
terminals.

I'd like to use a simple lever or rocker type switch to step up through the
forward and reverse speeds along with discrete components to mimic the
function of the switch.

I can't find a schematic of that switch.  Does anyone have suggestions on
how I can simulate the output of that switch?

Thanks
