Tilt/Trim won't go up or down

[Rangerbarrow]

Anyone have any advice on how to fix the tilt trim mine wont go up or down. I have had this happen before on this boat and it seems its usually the relays or the wiring anyone know how to jump wire it to get it to go up or down?

The easiest way to jump the trim pump is to disconnect the 2 wire connector coming off the motor. make yourself some jumper wires with push on connectors to go on the motor connector, then just jump to the battery. Put the + battery terminal to the direction you want to go Blue = sky = up..... Green = grass = down.

Yes corrosion on relays, and other connectors is the most common problem with those. Looks like yours has some, I have made vented covers to go over the unit to keep them dry and vented to keep the condensation off them.
