with my motor-muffs attached. I was able to put my sterndrive in the down position, using the "Power Trim" swtch on the throttle control handel.

Engine started right up ! HOORAY !

After I shut off engine, I tried to raise sterndrive, using same "Power Trim"
switch, however, the drive would not go up ? I tried to use the "trailer swich", and that did not work ? The "Power Trim", still seems to work,
bit only lowering sterndrive.

Any clues to over-ride this situation ? Now that the "trailer switch" doesn't raise the sterndrive, how can this be raised up ? Is there a main "fuse",
which controls all these actions?

FYI.... The "Trim Switch" and "Triler Swict" were working when I stored the boat for the winter.

Any information will be appreciated ! THANKS!
Spoke to my father today and it looks like the 4WINNS has the same sort of trouble. I know he will be digging into this and it will drive him up the wall till he finds the cause. He does have a wiring diagram for the boat.

The boat has not been in the water since 2005.
