Bar Up Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 I have noticed after the last couple of outings that the trim up button on both the remote control and the side of the engine have started to play up. Yesterday I noticed that the trim gauge display was not working at all neither. Does anyone have any hints on what I should be looking for or is it back to the dealer to have it fixed?

Bar Up Posted November 29, 2009 Author Share Posted November 29, 2009 Update I have just had a look after readings other posts about the trim gauge and I have located the problem with that. The piece of plastic which controls the gauge as come loose and hopefully an adjustment on the water next time will fix this issue. I did check the trim again and the down motion works fine however the up is still intermitent, it clicks but does not do anything and after three or four attempts starts working??

Up and down actions are contolled via a relay for each movement. If you hear clicking chances are the relay is failing. C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Chris, Do you have any idea where I could locate the relay to check? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisg Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 I think on the Yamaha it may be one unit Track your model down here - http://www.boats.net/parts/search/Yamaha/Outboard/parts.html Might give an indication of where to find it.

Geoff Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Chris When standing next to the motor & the tilt button is pressed "up" can you hear the pump motor running but the outboard is not lifting the way you think it should? If so the system may need fluid or to bleed the system. If the pump motor is not running then , as others have mentioned , sounds like a relay Either way , normally it is a dealer fix.
