I've done some testing following the troubleshooting procedure / schematic provided on this site and everything seems to check out Ok but I still have the same problem. The trim won't move in either direction when I hit the switch on the throttle but the relays click. I can move the foot by directly powering the motor in both directions. My engine is a 3.0GS PEFS. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Well, if all of the tests check out, replace both relays. The sockets aren't all corroded are they?

The sockets look OK. Can you recommend a relay supplier ?
