Hi Guys
I have a 1988 bayliner capri with a 5 litre engine and last night I was working away and accidentally shorted out my spanner on one of the solenoids oops.:rolleyes:

The problem I have now is my tilt trim isn't working, can anyone tell me where I can locate the fuse.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Depends on the engine and drive you have, not the type boat.

Should be a fuse holder up around the solenoids Starboard, aft on the intake manifold. It's 50A.

The starboard side is the starboard side, it doesn't make any difference which way you are looking.
