Owner of this Jigging reel brought it in for repairs because it "Does not turn on anymore"... I´m not surprised.

back of the mainboard. wont be salvaging much if anything from it.

Better look at the motor and the housing aint any better. Almost nothing worth salvaging from it except the main housing.

He didnt think it was odd that there was so much salt buildup on the inside of the screen...
I have honestly never seen one of these in such a bad condition before. worst is it was built in Q4 of 2012 so its only 2.5 years old.
I regularly maintain reels that are 20+ years old of the same design.

How did this happen? Fluke? Mishandling? Over- or underuse?

We aren't sure how yet but some ocean got inside and dried out a few times it seems.
