Thanks for the link, lots of good advice. Not sure where to look for the pump(s) any suggestions? 1996 Vista 258 |

Your pump should be in the engine area. It would have 2 tubes running off of it, connected by brass fittings, they would go thru your transom to your tabs. (That is, assuming they are hydrolic) |

Thanks for the comments, boating season just around the corner up here in Canada. The tabs appear to be stuck? I hear the pumps working and the fluids fine. Any other suggestions to get them 'unstuck'? Cheers |

I pulled this off the Bennett site, you can also call their tech support. I've called them in the past they were pretty helpful. (954) 427-1400 If HPU motor runs but trim tabs do not move: • Inspect for disconnected or corroded red and green wire connections at helm control and quick-disconnect plug. • The following test can be used to help isolate a malfunction. Remove wires from helm control and touch together as follows: Operation R eaction Orange ( + ), blue, red Port trim tab down Orange ( + ), blue, green Starboard trim tab down Orange ( + ), blue, red, green Both trim tabs down Orange ( + ), yellow, red Port trim tab up Orange ( + ), yellow, green Starboard trim tab up Orange ( + ), yellow, red, green Both trim tabs up If trim tabs function in each of the above combinations, check helm control. If during this test trim tabs continue to malfunction, inspect HPU. |

Awesome news. I assume this can be done out of the water without the engine running? |
