re: Power Trim Help

No short. I have the trim motor working now, but engine doesn't raise lower. Not electrical anymore. I mentioned the initial electrical problem just to list everything I did in case it was an indication of something to someone.
The brush dust that was in the electrical side of the motor did not get into the pump/hydraulic side. The shaft from the trim motor is sealed off from the pump.
I used the boat with no issues the day before with no problem. The next day the solenoid would click but the trim motor wouldn't run. I measured voltage all the way to the trim motor. That told me it was in the motor. The only thing that changed since, was that I used the manual release to raise/lower the motor and I removed the trim motor from the pump to clean out the dust.

Damn you have a mystery on your hands. The only thing I can think of is the pump gear being faulty. Something would happen if it was moving fluid.
