Hi all!
I have a 1998 Stingray/4.3L Mercruiser-Alpha1 and am having a issue with the drive tilt/trim.
The short version is that it will go down properly....but will only go up (via the U/D) switch about 1/4 the way.
The odd part (at least to me) is that the drive goes up fine with the "Trailer" button on the throttle control.
If it didnt go up at all, I think there would be some obvious things to check. But the fact that it goes up part of the way with the U/D switch and all the way with the Trailer button.....confuses me.
Going up with the Trailer button suggests to me that its not a hydraulic/fluid/air in the line issue.
Going part of the way up via the U/D control suggests to me that its not an electrical issue.
Anyone have any idea what I am missing here and might need to check?
How would the "up" signal/voltage/polarity from the U/D control be any different than that from the Trailer button?
Thanks for any help!
