Re: what would I do if the trim was all the way down and would not come back up
When this happens it is usually caused by a bad relay. Just bypass the relay and it'll come right up. If not, then you unbolt the rams and lift it up manually and strap it up.
BTW, if the relay does go bad, you can save some money by taking the relay to your local small engine/lawn mower repair shop and have them run the part number. A friend of mine found out that on his 1992 Mercury Bravo 1, the relay they used was the same one as he had on his riding lawn mower. Marine price was $40+, lawn mower price $12.
