my switch "up" button does not work on the throttle stick however the "down" button does. when I press the trailer button on the stick, the motor trims up. can anyone suggest what i need to do to figure out what's wrong with it

Re: Up trim is not working

Let me know what engine/drive/combo you have and we'll move this to that section. With that said, sounds like a trim limit issue, and it sounds like a Mercruiser . . . ;)

I would start by running the wires and see if you have a pinched wire or disconnect somewhere...that was my problem.

sounds like the trim limit switch on the outdrive has a broken wire. Otherwise, I would check the conditions of the wiring and contacts at the helm.

Duplicate in Mercruiser section.
