Hi all, I was hoping someone on here could help me with this problem. I just bought the boat and everything worked fine. Today I tilted the motor up and the pump motor would not shut off and the motor will not tilt down. When I try the switch to tilt down, the motor shuts off but, when I release it, the motor starts running again. I disconnected the battery to keep it from burning up but, when I connect the battery, it starts running again. I tried disconnecting the wire from the tilt switch on motor, but it still is stuck on.

Thanks for any help

First ascertain that your trim switch (s) itself isn't stuck/shorted out in the "up" position. That would be suspect in my mind, you can do that with either a test light or multi meter. If it isn't that then do as previously recommended and switch out your up/down relays. One could be hung "in".
