Re: force 125 power trim

your trim is controled by the short ram in the middle, one of the outer 2 is the tilt ram " the one with the line running to it" and the other is just like a shock. the tilt only works after the trim maxs out, trim is slow and tilt goes faster.

Re: force 125 power trim

motor runs but does not lift at all = blown piston or blown pump
lifts to top of trim and stops = worn out pump or low fluid
lifts past trim but not full up, holds position = low on fluid
lifts past trim but bleeds back down = worn out pump
runs in one direction but not the other = relay or wiring
doesn't do anything = motor
