Hi Guys, I have an Evenrude E-Tec 50hp in which the tilt has failed. The pump works fine, but the thing lifts the engine, but will not lower it. Sometimes, the reverse happens. The switch on the side is electrically fine. I believe it is likel;y a solenoid problem, as the switch does not look robust enough to carry the current, that the pump would likely require. Any thoughts?
Need a bit more info, you say the pump works fine, does the pump still run when it won't go down?
I am hopeless as shit with electronics and i have little experience with relays most relays have 4 pins (what i think) two pins are for the low loaded switching side connects to switches etc.. than the high load side which runspower for the tilt and trim
The low load side switches and tells the high load side (turn on or off)
The high load side takes all the current but the low current side just controls it when to work
I think thats how they work, i wouldbe looking at your relays as a possibly cause of failure
Most likely the relay. If you are good with a multimeter it will be pretty easy to diagnose.
Not sure whether it's across all models but BRP in their infinite wisdom went to a proprietary module design that incorporates both up and down into the same module for some E-Tec's at least. Would have been better to stay with off the shelf relays IMO but they didn't.Originally Posted by gazza2006au
One of many videos on you tube in relation to this.

Sorry for the slow response guys. Travels took me away from the computer for a time.
No Noelm, no pump.
Thanks Scottar. There are a few videos, but none are like the little 50. The solenoid is well hidden. I'm obviously looking in the wrong spot, or it's likely totally different to the one in the videos.
