T n T issue

[cbeam2]

We were out yesterday and the T N T quit going up. It would go down and the motor would run when you hit down. It made no sound at all when you hit up.

It had been working all day up till the point it quit. The motor was down all the way so we limped back to the launch. I kept hitting the button on the way back and it started to work again. Got it home and seems to be working fine now.

Any ideas? What can I check?

thanks Chuck

Sounds like your switch-
You have more than one?
If so do they all act the same

I thought the same thing at first but, I have 3 switches and none would work.

Not sure what year or model. My amateur opinion is RELAY. Here is a parts breakdown on my model. Item #46 is the relay and there are two of them.

To test if your "UP" relay is faulty, when it acts up next time reverse the relays. Pull both relays and swap them. Your "UP" should work and no "DOWN".

You can pop those relays open, they're not glued, squeeze the contacts together see what happens. Look for cold solder joints.

Well crap, I can't believe I totaly forgot to include motor info.

It's a 1990 Johnson 150GT. Where are the relays located?
