Went to jack the motor up another hole today and hit the trim button and got nothing. Got power to the black box according to my test light,when i hit the button i hear click. Wont go up and wont go down. Tried jumping the contacts and got nothing but a click. Will it ever end with this motor? West wants $190 for another trim tilt motor. I will diagnose it further tomorrow after i finish working on my truck....... and thats a whole nother story from hell.

When i get back to work i will start looking towards another motor. I am leaning towards a fuel injected two stroke. Will this be a good choice?

You probably have a bad connection somewhere at the relays, but trim motors can be had for ALOT less than WEST gets. What transom height is yours?
