Last time, I checked the voltage at the connectors closest to the motor and was getting about 9 volts in both switch positions. My unplugging/plugging game didn't work that time so I swapped the wires (2 on this model) and the motor tilted up and for a moment tilted down but didn't the second time I tried. Do you get a relay "click" the times it doesn't work? -- Regards, Dave Brown Brown's Marina Ltd http://brownsmarina.com/ Don't think I'd ever heard a click but will check again. I'll get the Mrs to mess with the switch while I listen at the motor. I can't hear a click from the helm, but I can't hear very well anyways so that doesn't mean it's not happening. |

I used a remote switch flipper tool (boathook) and checked it. No click when it doesn't work. |
