I have a 1998 Yamaha S150TXRW. Motor trims down no problem from both throttle and motor switch. From both switches when triming up, relay clicks. If you keep hitting the up switch rapdily, the realy will catch and the motor will trim up.

Can the blue trim relay have an intermittent problem or is there a ground problem for just that relay? It seems if the relay was dead it would not work at all. When I switch wires-blue wires to green relay, it trim up no problem. If a ground problem, where are all the places I should check?

Although, I think not related, I am also having troubles with the engine cutting out at WOT just in case there is some common factor. Check plugs, changed water seperator and checked filter on motor.
