Ask a few people now and have got a few different answers. each side went out a week apart from each other after going over ruff water. here is what I have done so far completely takin apart wire harnesses to check for any lose wire non, I have put two brand new forward and revers modules on them and they do same as the old ones just click when you hit the trim. I have jumped across the module with screw driver motors hum for a sec but don't move. and last I have tried taking the blue and green wire to a dewalt battery left motor moves up and down when touching to the battery right motor dose nothing. Any ideas ? called one place by me and they are telling me I have to put in to new trim motors. |

On the one that doesn't move up or down, the magnets inside the trim motors casing may have come unglued and locked up the motor. Had this happen on a mercury trim. You will lose some fluid, but I would take the motor off the unit that doesn't work and take it apart to see if magnets are ok. The one I had to replace would try to work, but after a few trys it would lock up and kick out the circuit breaker. Best place to get Mercury replacement motors is off Amazon.com $123 #809885A is a direct replacement. |

Have you tried a new or different battery? They draw some amps and your battery could read enough volts but have a dead cell and can't produce the amps. |

Mercury trim motor for MBs trim. Not familiar with other manufactures trim units, but thought they might use the same Mercury trim unit. At that, I would still take a look inside trim motor. With the abuse these units take it might be a problem with other manufactures trim units. IMO I think trailering with out some kind of support under motor, to ease weight on trim cylinder causes some of their failures. Transome saver might help combat this. |

When these units quit. they quit. Good voltage, good reversing modules, good circuit breaker... If all that is good, you put the motors direct to a battery source and check for direction while reversing polarity.. If it don't work direct to the battery the unit is bad. |
