Just bought a boat with aq151c motor and 290 sterndrive There was a 25 amp fuse for the tilt trim motor which was blown. What is the correct fuse size?

Thanks

Hi there sgray9, welcome to iboats!

Looking up both your engine and drive in a manual it shows the engine circuit breaker should be a 40 amp back then...But the fuse/possibule breaker for the trim motor is shown as an 55 amp plus maybe a 5 amp fuse coming out of the throttle handle control seen as item # 9 of both trim models which you will need/want to determine what trim pump motor design you have as there were two designs...One known as the earlier model and the other as a later model as seen here, http://boatinfo.no/lib/volvo/manuals/aq280-dpc_drive.html#/168

Engine 40 amp mentioned here, http://www.boatinfo.no/lib/volvo/manuals/131_171.html#/26
