99 Rude 225 Ficht T&t Problems

[CR]

I have a 99 model 225 FICHT with a tilt and trim problem. The motor will trim down, but not up. I have 1st changed the relays, then the relay panel or the box where the relays go and the motor will not go up. I no the motor is good because I wired stright from the battery to the trim wire plug that goes to the relay box and it worked both ways. Dose anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks CR

One other thing to add, from all 3 trim switches when the down switch is pushed you can here the relay trying to pull in but nothing when it is pushed up.

Check your grounds. The relay system reverses polarity to change direction of the trim motor. Bad grounds are usually the problem. When replacing relays do it in pairs.
