PO told me down relay was finicky and to replace soon; needed tapped to make work sometimes. Nursed it for 2 yrs, usually not too bad, finally got bad and worked the thumb switch pretty hard in the meantime. Found relay, replaced just as the entire thing cratered and it will not go down at all with old or new relay. Tried several things so far: Switched relays, both work. Switched green/blue wires and I could then get to retract down, but while pushing the thumb switch 'up.' Have a trailer switch in front and both switches get same result; up works, down does not and I can make either work by switching blue/green wire. [then can get engine down, by doing switch in 'up ' direction] Not knowing auto electronics well, it would seem that problem is between the two switches and the motor. Console is a Quicksilver Commander 3000. If the main, thumb switch has cratered, can that also cause trailer switch not to work? Trying to ID line problem, before I tear into console to tinker with switch - which does not look easy.,, Any suggestions appreciated..
