    USA XR6 Trim Issues

    Hey Guys, this is a buddy's boat, he believes the trim relays are going bad (his mechanic installed a new pump last week), the mechanic put the boat on the water and it worked for him, my buddy got it home, it trimmed up and down a couple times, then it quit going down/only goes up now and was making a clicking noise under the cowling at what he believes are the relays?? in the picture...Cannot find a relay part# for these??? Thank you for your help....

    Certainly sounds like a relay. You might go to Don's web site and look them up. They are power trim relays...

    Solenoid in this case.

    2.5L forum (next one down the list) is where your engine is normally covered.

    Sorry Alex- we don't recommend Aftermarket components.
