Where do I start troubleshooting my electric trim system?
Nothing happens when I use the Up trim switch - no sound, no movement. The
trailer (up) switch works correctly. The Down switch lowers the motor, but
not the last couple of inches. I pushed it down with my boat pole to get it
all the way down.
Once underway, I could use the Trailer switch to trim up and the Down switch
worked correctly.
The boat sat in dry storage for seven months. It took about a minute to get
the gas pumped back into the carburetor, but then it started right up and
ran great. This trim problem is the only thing not working.
