I then hooked the terminal back to the battery to see what it would do. I moved these around thinking maybe it was a short. I got to looking at some of the "rats nest" near the control box, and noticed alot of electrical tape on the wires there. Then something happened and it started going down on its on again, like it was doing before. All three of my switches worked on the down, but not the up. I then put the switch in the down position and the motor would go down. I hooked it all back up and the motor would not go down. I thought this would be something I could do easily. I removed those and made sure all the terminals and posts were clean. There was some rusting of some washers on there. Ok, so I took all the terminals off and cleaned all those up real good. I would think that is telling me the solenoid is working ok if the motor is getting fire. I don't see any relay's in my manual, just the solenoid. The motor again is on and starts trying to go down.Īm I missing something ? Why would it try and go down? I would think it would not move it all since none of the switches are sending power to the motor to go down. So all switches are unhooked and I try it again. I just cut the red power cable, so it isn't getting power to the switch. The one at the contol is soldered on, at least to the up and down button areas. So, I unhook all the switches ( 1 at the front of the boat, and the other at the control box). So it is still on, after unhooking what I thought was a bad switch. When I do this, the motor starts to run and the motor tries to go down. I thought it was that switch, but I am still having an issue with it.Īfter I completely unhooked the switch, I tried putting the terminals back on the battery. Ok, I took off the switch in the back of the boat. Where in the hades, can I get these little bitty fuses? I wanted to cuss and set the boat on fire at that point. I pulled it off and sure enough, there it was. After I got home, I realized that there was a selonoid box on the inside of my boat. I checked all the cables to make sure none were pinched or cut. I had to sit there and watch all the boats take off and mine sitting there. I checked the batteries and connections and they were all good. I checked this the night before and everything was working. I get at the ramp, about to put the boat in the water, when the power tilt/trim will not work. I was up all night checking my equipment so that I wouldn't have problems the next morning. ![]() I got ready on the night before the tournament for this weekend.
