Tilt and trim is inop it will only make a clicking noise when you try to operate it. Has fluid,. Any suggestions as to what else to check before I take it in. Help is appreciated.

99% of the time,if the solenoids click in both the up and down activation,then the motor on the trim unit has failed in some way,usually water ingress.

I just gotta wonder how many motors with trim and tilt Yamaha built in 1989?

I have a 1988 yami 50hp pro model and it did the same thing. I replaced the trim motor and it works good now. Now of course I checked the motor to make sure that was the problem.
