Or can I clean the sensor I have?
Probably not, but if the verodo has any ground straps like a opti does check them for breaks. Also at European marine they have a part look up area.Originally Posted by theredman

8M0010626 is the part number for the trim sensor.

A little update. Trim sensor is reading but not accurate. I tried calibrating but still not right. But trim sensor is working but its off by at least half
You tried calibrating by WHAT METHOD?

The one that’s on YouTube. All the way down- press save, all the way up-save, then on my trailering position-press save.?
Don't rely on the "Tube" for technical guidance. Most of those videos are riddled with errors (some amusing, some downright expensive, and some even very dangerous).
You are calibrating SMARTCRAFT (not calibrating the trim sender).
G3 Diagnostic System is required to actually set the trim and trailer limit positions in the PCM. Smartcraft can be used to adapt the GAUGE to the sender.
Three points are saved:
-Full DOWN (hold for 4 seconds stalling trim): Save.
-Place angle finder on the anti-ventilation plate and note current angle.
-Add 20 degrees to this angle... raise engine to that point ONLY. This is TRIM angle (Save).
-Now raise engine all the way up as high as you can without contacting any fixed object. This is TRAILER position. (Save).
Exit the calibration settings and it should "read" properly.

Right now it just reads trim all the way down or 0. Can I run it like that? Will the boat run properly. Because right now I’m still having the sputtering at 4,500 RPM. Thanks for the info
As long as it does not show a reading above 20%.

Trying to calibrate but still no reading properly.
shows 0% or all the way down until I get to all the way down. Then reads at 25%
Enter the calibration or settings section of your Smartcraft Instrument.
First step is FULL DOWN: run the trim ALL THE WAY DOWN, and CONTINUE TO HOLD THE DOWN BUTTON for 4 seconds. SAVE SETTING.
Second step is the TRIM position. Measure current angle of anti-ventilation plate (there's an app for that), then add 20 degrees to that angle. Raise trim to this point (but no higher) and then SAVE.
Final step is to raise to the highest/maximum TRAILER position (without contacting anything with the cowling). SAVE.
Now exit the Settings or Calibration section, and see if it works properly.
If it does NOT, there is a problem with the trim sensor or the pin.

Wasn’t able to calibrate properly but trim is reading down or 0. So boat is running great!. Thanks for all replies.
Update, the trim gauge sometimes reads all the way down(and runs fine). Then sometimes reads all the up, when it’s not. Witch causes it to govern itself and limit it’s rpm’s. I haven’t replaced anything yet because I don’t won’t to spend money on parts I don’t need. Should I replace the trim sensor and see if that’s it?
Make sure the pin is properly secured- if it is, REPLACE TRIM SENSOR.

Ok thanks, sorry I’m kinda not knowledge. I pulled out the sensor and it has corrosion in it. It does look like it could be bad. Can you explain what the pin is? Thanks I appreciate you answering all my questions.
"Pin" is the Anchor Pin that connects the top of the ram to the engine.
