Volvo penta tilt & trim

[Largesarge]

Tilt & trim blows 15 amp fuse located in f2 position on glastron GL 205 5.0 GL-J engine relays are good. Will raise and lower with new fuse at the dock. Get under way and attemp to trim out and fuse blows. I have had throttle shifter trim switch apart no obvious problem. I need a full wiring diagram. Not my boat, but can repair with proper guidance. Thank you

Here's the wiring diagram, but I doubt it will help you find the problem. Check the wiring in the throttle/shifter where it wraps around the handle and comes through from the back. Usually will find a nicked wires shorting against the housing causing the problem.

Re: Volvo penta tilt & trim

It's an old Sierra 72 and has the 130 B20 Volvo. It has the mechanical worm gear tilt and I need help finding the wiring diagram. I have been running it without the top stuff, the micro-switch stuff that prevents going up, or down too much. Now I have all the parts, how do I hook it up??
Thanks.
