I have a 1999 Mercruiser Alpha ! Gen II sterndrive. The power trim does not
go up with the shift mounted control, but does activate with the TRAILER
button.
The service manual suggests that the switch may be faulty. I also have
some trouble shooting info in the manual to try. The trim pump is located
in a hard to get at location. before I try to get at the pump, I though I
would ask the group for suggestions.
Thanks in advance....

Dave, if it works from the trailer button, doesn't that eliminate the pump
as a potential culprit?
Check the switch, the connectors to it (corrosion), look for a pinched lead
between it and the stern.
