Bravo 3 Outdrive - Trim Sender & Limit Switch / Power Trim Tilt Relays
Hi I have a 2006 Bravo 3 Outdrive
I noticed the my Trailer Switch (WHITE) is working up to lift the outdrive.
and my trim Switch (Black) is only tilting down, when pressed (by itself) the up is only working when I have the Trailer Switch (WHITE) Pressed.
The Trim Tilt (BLACK) is supposed to work on its own, to prevent over tilting when in water
My Outdrive looks clean, I keep it out of the water.
I removed and cleaned the contacts on my Trim Sender & Limit Switch for the Port side, and the Starboard sides. The wiring looks good, and the contacts look good. I removed some grease, and went over the contacts with fine set/dry sand paper. So it looks like the contacts are not the problem.
Power Trim Tilt Relays: I looked at my outdrive power trim pump, all looks clean and has no corrosion.
Checked my Trim and Trailer Switch and both have good contacts.
Trim Switch (BLACK)
Trailer Trim Switch (WHITE)
I jumped the wires on the Trim Switch (BLACK) to make it go down,
but when I jump wires in the (BLACK) Trim Switch to make it go up, it does not move the lower unit?
Not sure what that means yet?
Does anyone know what I should check or replace?
Trim Sender & Limit Switch ?
Power Trim Tilt Relays ?
I am not sure what to check next?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
