Re: force 120 starter and trim problems

Rick,<br />Sounds like you have two problems. the first is a bad trim solenoid, if you swap the up and the down solenoids you will see your problem reverse. as far as the cranking the first thing i would check would be the starter current draw. If the starter is drawing more than 170amps replace it. I am assuming you have good clean and tight battery connections? Bret <br /><br /> If you need further assistance please email me @ forcepower01@yahoo.com. thanks,Bret

Thankyou,I replaced starter and it cranked right up,also switched solinoids and got the trim downwards.
