 Gator tail trim
I have the old style trim set up and it stopped working so I changed my relays out and still nothing. Any ideas?

 Re: Gator tail trim
Do the relays click? Do you have a volt meter? Need to make sure you have power, check fuses or breakers, or whatever in line protection is on the circuit.

 Re: Gator tail trim
Does it do anything, do you here anything coming from the motor, or does it just do nothing

 Re: Gator tail trim
Do you have volt meter? Check and see if you have power...

 Re: Gator tail trim
Dude, you got worse luck than I do with motors. Like Clay said, get a volt meter or test light & see if you're getting power to the trim unit, relays, circuit breaker, switch, etc. Could very well just be a broken wire.

 Gator tail trim
Are the connections on the back of the switch connected? Assuming its an older model trim on the front of the motor.

 Re: Gator tail trim
What years do you consider older models? What year did they change?
