Power Trim not consistant yamaha f200

Power Trim not consistent Yamaha f200, 2014.

Trim will work normal, then it will not. Sounds like motor is bogging. Fluid is full.

Suggestions.

It is almost always the solenoid. A new one is under $100, I saw one on ebay for $39 plus shipping just a few minutes ago.

Here is a good video on how to troubleshoot your unit before buying another one.+ It’s a really simple at home replacement, even if you have limited skills.

But like I said, its almost always the solenoid.

Let us know what you find out.

Turns out it was the pump. Used VM and there was 12 +v to the pump. If I manually turned the axle, it would turn slowly.

Ouch, the switch would have been a heck of a lot easier to replace, and a bit cheaper too.

8 years on a saltwater pump, probably not too shabby.
