I have Volvo Penta 5.0 GI from 1999. The trim pum worked well yesterday when I trimmed it to run. After, when I tried to trim back up or down nothing happened. I had no clicking of relays and no trim motor at all.
The 15 Amp fuse is ok and the relays doesn’t have corrosion.

The boat is at the sea and is difficult to search the anomaly.

What can I do to solve the problem?
Thanks.

Simplest is take a screwdriver handle or solid object of your choice and lightly tap on upper side of trim motor while trying your trim switch. If activates you need to: a. rebuild that pricey volvo penta motor or b. buy a cheap replacement motor ($60). If that don't fix it check for power at the wire harness into the trim motor.
