LoL
thats why I didn’t want a boat even though I love boats with all my heart and I love to tinker especially motors however I like classics and inboards they are easy for me but I gave this guy a loan to keep his family off the street he worked for his uncle who passed Recently passed
and is going through a very hard time he Insisted
on giving me this boat to thank me and a promise to pay me back one day my intentions are to fix this boat and if he pays me back I will insist on giving him the boat back so he can sell it or take his boys fishing

Is there a way you can have someone else hit to switch and see if you see a fluid leak?

 

[racerone]

Sorry I have some gardening to do.

 

[1dumbazz]

Good luck with your garden racer
everything looks dry jer I sprayed some pb blaster
ti see if there where any bubbles and nothing

 

[1dumbazz]

Oh and I used a jumper wire strait from the battery to the pins to the blue and green wire still the same you hear the motor but nothing happens I was going to try the manual release but I am worried I won’t get the motor back up at least it’s up and I can tow it the way it is

 

[JerEazy]

If you hit it up on the switch does it move? Can you pressure relief it down a bit and then try it?

I’ve been told if it moves one direction, then there’s nothing wrong with the motor. And pretty sure if you’re hearing the sound it’s not the solenoid.

im just recently learning tilt/trim systems. Sorry I can’t be more help. Mine did something similar to yours where it went up but not down. But when I came back the next day to start trouble shooting, it worked.

 

[1dumbazz]

Nothing up or down right now it’s about half way I’m afraid to lower it anymore

 

[GA_Boater]

Everyone knows what motor you have with trim troubles. Don't we?

 

[gm280]

If you can hear the motor run when trying to tilt one way or the other, did the motor shaft sheer a pin or whatever it is supposed to be connected to? Just a thought...

 

[Faztbullet]

Is the manual release screw turned all the way in??

 

[1dumbazz]

Sorry GA_boater it is a 2001 evinrude 150

i never checked to see if the screw is in all the way u will check once the rain dies a little

 

[1dumbazz]

Thank you faztbullet!!! Problem solved!!!!!
the manual screw was all the way open I closed it did a fluid change the first time up I had to help it I moved it up and down about ten times then started working perfectly

 

[JerEazy]

Nice! Love it when it’s simple

 

[boobie]

It's always the little things that get ya !!

 

[1dumbazz]

It is refreshing after all the head scratching from all the other problems lol
