1978 85hp V4 Evinrude tilt trim.

[James R]

Tilt/Trim relay box missing. Three wire pump.
I recall there is a way to direct connect to a battery to activate the pump.The wire colors are faded but I think we have blue, green and black.
I dont recall the combination. I dont think it is black to neg and either blue or green to pos for up or down.
Need a little help.

At the three wire trim motor, black is the common negative ground.
