Default Boat Power Trim Up Switch Not Working - Help!


"Jeff" wrote in message

I've purchased my first boat - '95 Bayliner Capri Classic with the
Alpha One 135 engine. The Power trim up switch doesn't work, but the
down switch does. I can raise the motor for trailering by using the out
switch, but can't trim the motor up. Any ideas? Also, the speedometer
works about half the time. Is it a bad speedometer? How hard is it to
check? Any help would be appreciated.

The trim position sender on the side of the outreive is bad. Live without it
if you can. It's a pain in the butt to change. Speedometers are inacurate,
clog easy, and aren't really necessary. Problems are usually with the Pitot
tube.
