Re: outdrive trim problem
First of all: You don't use trim up to put the outdrive in trailering mode. On the lower right, as you face it, or lower back, if you will, of your throttle control group is a button. You press that one to raise the outdrive to its trailering position.
The trim up control will allow you to raise the outdrive only 50%, which is the maximum safe trim up while operating. The trailering switch allows it to be raised all the way.
Now, as to your problem. In most cases where trim up fails it's the trim sensor mounted on the outdrive. If that sensor's not working, the system can't tell how high the drive is, so it would let you raise it with trim up. You'll likely have to have that replaced.
