i have a 96 100 hp merc, the motor will trim up but not back down. The trim motor runs in both directions, but nothing happens in down direction. i tried bleeding the system, it was full of fluid. Before it quit going down, the motor would bounce while it was trimming down.

The attached troubleshoot guide may help you if the problem is mechanical and not electrical.
