My trim gauge always show 48 and I can't move outdrive up and down, but outdrive is in full down position. I can move outdrive up and down if I go to EVC calibrate mode. Is it problem with trim sensor? Can I just disable it?

I think the EVC actually controls the gauge settings. Can you re-calibrate the gauge through the EVC?

Yes I can re-calibrate through EVC. The outdrive goes up and down, but when go out form calibration gauge shows 46 and go only down, but outdrive is full down.
