That is my thoughts too. Something in the ecm is draining the battery. There is a company named Simon that say they can repair a ECM module. I am thinking of sending it to them. I wonder if anyone else has used them?Trim motor operates as it should when routed around the ecm.You would have to really think about replacing the ECM module.---Big $$$ I believe.-----Perhaps find a way to provide 12 volts DIRECTLY to the trim motor and see if it operates both ways.------That might tell you that it is a wiring / connection problem.
