Bouncing trim guage?
I was wondering if anyone might know what would cause a trim guage to bounce. Mine acts as if is turning on and shutting off constantly, even when sitting completely still.:confused: Seems like something electrical, but where to begin?
Thank you! |
Re: Bouncing trim guage?
If you search the forums, you'll find a thread about the trim sensor on the outdrive. Apparently sometimes they can be cleaned to bring them back to life. Also, you might find mercstuff.com's Trim Limit & Sender Switch Adjustments page helpful.
Good luck, Jim |
Re: Bouncing trim guage?
Well, I removed the trim sensor from the outdrive just a few minutes ago. I tried cleaning it and re-installing it, but to no avail.:( I disconnected it completely and no change in the guage whatsoever. It's as if the guage refuses to recognize that the sensor is even connected. Also, there is a white wire that is badly corroded even up into the sensor and the wire jacket is broken in several spots. Sounds like it's time for a new sensor.
