Really strange. In that the only way to stop the pump from lowering the outdrive is to connect (and keep connected) the red wire to the blue wire. Once I run a ground wire, and touch the green wire, the pump will raise the outdrive (continuously, even when it is no longer touching). According...
Update: I ran a separate ground wire, and touched it to the Green wire (while the red and blue wire were still connected) at the trim tab, and the outdrive continuously ran in the up position. Most puzzling
I have a 2002 Crownline 4.3L. About 6 months ago, I had the same problem that I have now (that I thought was fixed). The outdrive trim motor will not turn off, trying to constantly be in the down position. Previously, I replaced the switch in the throttle body, and both relays. A week ago...
Now I'm really stumped. I had previously replaced the switch inside the throttle housing. On purpose, I left the switch wired, but separate from throttle handle (see photo). It happened again! The outdrive went into the down position overnight (and the motor ran until the battery drained)...
My 1997 Crownline (4.3GLA) is parked on the side of my house. When I noticed that the outdrive was in the down position and the battery was dead, I replaced the switch on the throttle, as well both of the Hella Relays (part# 4RD-931-680-01). The outdrive worked (up and down) for 2 days, and...
My 1997 Crownline (4.3GLA) is parked on the side of my house. I noticed the other day that my outdrive was in the down position and the battery was dead. While trying to charge the battery, I could hear the outdrive motor continuing to run - continually trying to lower the volvo penta outdrive...
My 2002 Crownline with 4.3 Volvo Penta has a 12 GA wire to the temperature guage, and a 14 GA wire at the sender at the engine. I'm running a new wire, does it matter what size I run? Thank you for any input on this
