Motor Trim - The Hull Truth

YellowBoatMan · 08-09-2007, 01:03 AM

On a older Johnson outboard with electric trim, the motor will only trim up. I have to manualy let it down, it dos this at both switchs so it isnt just one switch doing it. So my question is, what is causing this? I am hoping to get this fixed by saturday.

Thanks

follow the trim switch blue and green wires on the motor
you will find them
some times up top sometimes on the side
