Just purchased this boat a few days ago and just like the title says, the trim up button on the throttle lever does not work but the trailer does. Now i know they both control the same movement, but trailer allows the outdrive to go higher than the trim up button which can be bad on u-joints if it gets up too high.
What would be the cause of this and is it an easy fix? I am a pretty handy guy and would like to avoid paying a shop to do this as i have quite a bit of automotive mechanical background but this is my first time dabbling into boat mechanics.
Its a 1989 Rinker 186 with a 4.3 Mercruiser I/O
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!
