1991 stingray 536 3.0 liter
Trim up is not working. I replaced the up trim solenoid and the problem remained. At that point I tracked the problem (I thought) to the switch because when I jumped the wires it would activate the trim either up or down depending on which wire I was jumping to power. I also reversed the up and down trim wires on solenoids and determined that both solenoids are functioning. A friend had the exact switch for this boat so I installed that and the problem remains. All I can think is the sensor on the side of the outboard unit is faulty and telling the system the unit is in the up position. Does this sound like a reasonable thought? Does the trailer button over ride the sensor?
Very confused on this one and dont want to rely in the trailer button to trim up.
Thanks for any help on this.
