Great day on the water until I got back to the ramp. :evil: First day out with the new boat too. When I got back to the ramp my power trim/tilt stopped working. The out drive was stuck completely down. I called the Volvo Penta emergency service for help, but we couldn't get the pump to work. No sound, no click, no nothing. So I had to disconnect the rams at the out drive and tie the out drive up to the boat so I could drive it home. At least I got the full day out of it. What a nice day on the water too. :?: :?: :?: Anyone have any ideas on what I can check. Fuse, Breaker, any thing? I tried switching the solenoids but still nothing. There must be a fuse some where. Right?

I found the fuse last night doing a search on the Boating ABC. I figured it had to be a fuse since it didn't make any noise at all. The fuse was located on the pump in clip bundle. I never would have though there was a fuse in there. The forum saved my Labor Day.

Mine will not go down either. No click or motor noise. Get green light on limiter box by engine when I push down button. What do you mean by bundle? can you snap picture. What year is yours? Mine is 1997 Sundowner 225.

Good fix - but I would still arrange for them to inspect the system....question is why would the fuse/breaker trip? Unless you may have been hitting the down down down button without realizing it during the day and it finally kicked the breaker. I know that for some reason i am always inadvertantly bumping against my switch....just not used to it being right there since my prior boat throttle/trim was mounted lower.
