    Trim Tab Question

    Do our trim tabs rely on fuses? If so, would that be the problem of my driver side trim tab to be stuck in the down position?--the passenger side goes up and down on it's own just fine! Or do I have a broken tab, again?

    They are not fused seperatly, but do have a circuit braker just below the switch.

    YOU HAVE A BAD TAB, OR WIRING ISSUES.

    i caught something that pulled the tab down and made it loose from the gears i guess... and when i went to raise it nudged it some from the bottom and it caught and went up and down with no problem.

    It should not come out of detent.
    I still say the brushes are toast in that actuator.
    It will hang again.
