Well folks my excel 205 fisco was taken me to a level i didnt see myself having to reach. Ive got her gutted to the hull and starting over with all new guts. Im re-powering with mercruiser alpha one gen 2 and selling off the volvo penta sx parts. Ive found that some parts like the steering and transome plate are interchangeable but the trim sensors have me wondering. I like the trim over-ride feature and want to have that functional. So before i get to the wiring phase i figured id get some info. How do these systems work with the dual sensors and trim over-ride? I havent had much luck finding an electrical schematic yet. Thanks for any info!

Ayuh,...... I don't understand yer question,.....

There's a trim gauge sender, 'n a trim limit switch on the gimbel ring,....

The trim limit switch is over-ridden inside the hull, at the pump,....
