tilt and trim wiring

[xltier]

does anyone know of a switch for tilt and trim that will reverse polarity.my tilt motor is a reversing motor,only 2 wires,and when i set up a system with 2 slave solenoids i found that out.one way has to have power and ground on the same side and vise-versa.maybe someone has a better way of doing it shy of all the factory stuff.thanks

The force engines use 2 relays to do the job volvo use to use a setup to do it also I tried to find a l parts listing for the relays aftermarket but could not find one. You might shop around for a doner motor it would save you a lot of grief and the relays and plugs shouldn't be to costly 2nd hand

i once had a tow truck that had reversing 12 volt motor for winch.there was 2 of the ford type starter solenoids that were wired to the toggle switch some how.it appeared factory.maybe i can come up with a schematic of one.thanks
