Hello all,

I just purchased a 1978 Sea Ray Sedan Bridge. The trim tabs are not working. Does anyone know if they hydraulic or electric? If hydraulic, do they use the same reservoir as the outdrive up/down?
Thanks,

Don

They are "probably hyd" and would have their own pump and resovoir. Usually located inside and mounted on or near the transom. Can you hear the pump running when push the switch? Might just be a fuse.

No, I could not hear the pump running, I'll check the fuse first. Thanks, now begins the process of elimination.
