Simple Fix for a Boat Power Trim Not going Up or Down (Boat Trim Not Working) 2 Stroke

Replacing the Relay on a Johnson 120 ‘96 Model. There’s 2 boxes and 2 plugs. One is for the “trim down” and the other is “trim up”. If one or both of these go bad it will disable your trim. Always check these boxes first before you put it in the shop. This guy probably saved me hundreds of dollars.
Here’s the link for the part, very inexpensive.

    To get motor to move where you need it to in "emergency", I believe you can swap the solenoids to get the motor to trim up or down (assuming 1 of your 2 solenoids is good).

    Thanks for this video. I have a old 125 tracker by mercury and this was my fix! You saved me some money with this quick $20 part swap and now I have trim again!

    Thanks and I wish you much luck. Could be a few things, starting from the simplest first. Relay, relay harness, wiring, or trim motor.

    Easy fix might be a bad connection to the battery, or a switch. If theirs two switches then it’s not that. Could possibly be the power trim motor.

    I just troubleshoot them by swapping them with one that I know works and the switch works as well. Also will use both the switch on my controller and the one on the outboard itself. Mainly just trial and error but I’m sure there’s probably other ways that more electronically inclined people know.

    Hello and thanks for the question. You can test if it’s a relay by swapping them and seeing if the down trim is working and the up is not. If still the same outcome it might be the harness. I have a video after this one where I replaced that part. Good luck, hope it works.
