I have Bravo two, getting ready to put the muffs on and want to trim down, however I am getting a clicking noise coming from the pump. Fluid looks good, I am not running off the standard two batteries though(if that matters). What could be causing clicking noise when using trim button?

Do you think it's a function of the 'juice' the pump is getting? I am running with AC /DC converter may not be enough amps. Corroded wire ends? Do you mean around the battery terminal. Thanks!

well the pump does draw about 100 amps whens its working BUT clicking is usally bad connections<br /><br />A connection may be good enough to pass voltage BUT bad connections dont pass enough amps to do any work !<br /><br />tommays

I do not think the AC/DC step down transformer is pushing 100 amps. I'll put the new batteries in and give it a go.
