Sounds like it fried the speed control circuit which is a set of Resistors. Very similar to the fan speeds for your car blower. The car blower is one part for all controls. Parts are relatively cheap if you can find them. Minkota is a very good brand. Contact them and see. But labor may not make it worth it.
Do you need the lower speeds? Most people run use max 90% of time?
Is this the pedal or another gadget?
