Hi can anyone tell me how the trim gauge is wired on my 115 1998 Evinurde ?
It doesn't work, I've checked the sender pot and that's ok (although it was stuck) AND I've also replaced the wires that go from the pot to the power head. Three of them, they were melted at some point possibly due to the metal earth strap on the engine corroding away and the trim tilt motor dragging current down the earth wire to compensate the corroded earth strap. Anyway Ive fixed all that but could do with some information on how exactly the gauge is wired, then I don't have to rip all the wires out of the boat!!
