    Help

    My dad has a 2006 Stratos with a 225 E-tec outboard motor. He called me and said he walked out to his boat and noticed that the tilt/trim motor was running and the motor was going up and down and then just went all the way down. By the time I got there the tilt motor was still running...so to keep the motor from burning up I took the negative off of the battery. I took the cowling off and found the tilt/trim relay so I ordered one and replaced it but when I connect the ground wire back the tilt/trim motor is still running. Not sure what the next step is....does anyone have any experience with this issue?

    probably one of the tilt switches, the one on the bow is usually the one that goes bad!
