Hello all. Tilt/trim worked fine the last time I used it which was about 6 weeks ago. I put the boat on the trailer and tilted the motor up and set it on the rest bracket. Today I went out to crank it since it had been sitting for a while. Tilt would not lift up. I picked the motor up by hand enough to disengage the rest bracket. Motor tilts down fine and cranks and runs fine but will not tilt up. I can hear the relay clicking when I push the up button but that's it, no motor response.

Any one have an ideal where I can start?? Broke wire maybe?? Thanks for any advise. Joey

Check for voltage coming from the relay to the motor when the relay clicks.

Swap the relays and see what happens.
