Default Re: merc trim and tilt

To check the motor with a three wire Trim and Tilt bypass the solenoid/relay.

blue wire to Positive = Trim UP
green Wire to Positve = Trim Down
Black Wire = Ground (duh!)


Make sure you have a good ground.

I have several sets of these relays/solenoids and I have three wire motors too. The 3 wire motors are a PIA to replace . . . after you do one you'll wish you had the Old Style Single Ram Piston with External Trim and Tilt Pump (Still used on the racing motors).
