Jim derose Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 My table in the front goes up half way and stops. You have to keep pressing button letting go press again and it will go up a little at a time. Any ideas Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slyshon Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 Most likely a switch issue, we have seen a few of them go bad. Skip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 Jim, did you figure out your table issue? Mine is doing the exact same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raygill Posted April 3, 2021 Report Share Posted April 3, 2021 same issue with the table lift in the bow. any solutions? switches or table actuators? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 called the manufacturer, scandvik and spoke with Mike. They sent me a new motor and switch but unfortunately that didn’t fix it. Says the shaft must have an issue at the stage 1 stage 2 intersect. Supposed to send a new shaft at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saar Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 Hi Rob, min new to this forum and have the same issue. Did you ever solve the problem with the new hardware? please let me know. Thank you, Saar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobia 301 Posted January 2 Report Share Posted January 2 I bought mine new in 2019 table worked fine for about a year. Then it quit lifting on the second stage. Only lifts to seat height. Did not really care as I just use boat for fishing and my ice chest rides up front on the deck. I would raise it just to clean under it. Now today it had trouble going up at all got about 3 inches from seat height. Quit all together no more up or down. Think I will remove it altogether and just seal it in the deck. But now I see they bonded the table to the metal lift plus screwed it also. This table idea was a real loser. Do not know who thought of this stupid idea. Anyone could see it would not work for long in a saltwater environment. I am 6 foot 4 inch and it is a real pain trying to get into that space to get it out of there. Now to get a midget to help me.

280 Cobia Posted July 6 Report Share Posted July 6 My table is stuck in the down position. I’m getting ready to sell the boat and would like to get it working. Any recommendations from those of you that have been able to resolve these type issues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Posted July 7 Report Share Posted July 7 We have seen the switches go bad. Some guys reverse the switch to get the table up.. Have you tested the switch ? Does it make any noise when you push up ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HGotor Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 Good evening. I have a Cobia 320 and my front bow table stopped working. When you depress the up or down switch it makes a singular “beep” but the table does not move. Any ideas what the issue can be? This is the second time my table has gone bad. First time was a year after I bought the boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffs301cc Posted July 25 Report Share Posted July 25 My table is doing the same thing. When I push the switch, I can hear a buzzing sound like the motor is trying to do something, but the table does not move either up or down. It is stuck about halfway up. I am selling the boat in a couple of days. Has anybody found a solution? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubic302 Posted September 10 Report Share Posted September 10 Hi Guys.. Just my 2 cents: For those of you that have the table stuck in the halfway point or the table only goes to the heat height (halfway), try spraying WD40 or penetrating fluid on the cylinder and leave it for a day or 2. I say this because it worked for me. I have a 2020 Cobia 280, After the first year the table came up halfway. I called the manufacturer and was told to bring in the actuator. That's when I found out it was bonded to the floor. It would be a mess to remove.. I sprayed penetrating fluid on the cylinder and left it for 2 days. The table worked fine. My theory is that we get salt water splash on the deck and it flows towards the drain near the table. If the table cylinder is not washed, a salt ring or oxidation ring forms around the cylinder and stops it halfway. After this, I wash the cylinder on a regular basis and lube. Haven't had an operation issue with the table since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
