Hi All, I have a 2001 Larson 230 Lxi with a 5.0 Volvo Penta. I pulled the stern up last night to check the prop, but when I went to put it down, I had nothing!! I checked the fuse and it seems ok. There is, what looks to be, two circuits in the engine compartment. One of them is cover with a little black box, and one is not. When I pull the housing off the one circuit, it kicks the stern lift "up position" on, and the stern drive starts going up, however the exposed circuit does not fire up at all. Could this be the problem? And is there a manual way to dropt the stern back into the water. Thanks for the help!
