Thanks for the reply. After looking at the repair manual for about 30 seconds I was able to figure it out. Now I have other issues. here

One wire to a battery negative, the other to positive. Reverse the wires to make the motor run the other way.

Subsequently, question is, How do you manually raise an inboard outboard motor? Reach to the back of the engine housing to the back transom — the very back edge of the boat. Look for two metal pins connecting the shaft to the trim-motor. Use an adjustable wrench to unscrew the pins from the trim motor, preparing the shaft-propeller to be raised manually. Leave the cowling open. more
Can I use a bigger motor on my boat than what it’s rated for? It is not a violation of Coast Guard regulations to install or use an engine larger than specified on the capacity label, but there may be state regulations prohibiting it, and restrictions from your own insurance company regarding this.
The Trim Limit Switch is a safety device which keeps the driver from over-trimming while under way. Trimming the drive too high while under way can cause damage, injury or death. The Trim Sender Switch is used to send a signal to the Trim Gauge so you can see the level of the drive.
If the motor operates, then the problem is a lack of power to the motor (faulty solenoid or relay, bad connections, etc.). Failed solenoids, relays and corrosion (at connections, relay sockets, quick-disconnect plugs, etc.) are some of the most common problems associated with tilt and trim system failure.
Step Three: Attach the positive ( RED ) battery cable to the positive terminal on the battery. Touch the other end to the blue wire on the motor. As soon as you touch the battery cable to the blue wire, the motor should start to spin clockwise. If the motor fails to spin, then it is defective and needs to be replaced. [links]
Step Two: Attach the negative (BLACK) battery cable to the to the negative terminal of the battery. The other end will need to be attached to the green wire on your motor. here
This test will work for any 12-volt, 2 wire, permanent magnet trim motor. First, use the images below to accurately identify what type of motor you have. Before you test your motor, you will need to remove it from the boat.
Step Four: Attach the negative (BLACK) battery cable to the negative terminal on the battery. The other end will need to be attached to the blue wire. [links]
Step One: Place your motor in the vise or have someone hold it carefully. more
Step Five: Attach the positive ( RED ) Battery cable to the positive terminal of the battery. Touch the other end to the green wire. As soon as you touch the battery cable to the green wire, the motor should start to spin counter clockwise. If your motor fails to spin counter clockwise, then it is defective and needs to be replaced. [links]
Thanks 99yam. I figured you would have some good insight. I have found an aftermarket trim pump for $70 and am going to try my luck with it. I will likely pull the old trim motor and clean it up in my spare time to have a spare.
1.) Can you tear these motors down, clean them up and rebuild them?
Got a 2006 Yamaha F115 (fourstroke) and the trim motor will work 75% of the time. The other 25% I have to tap the motor with a hammer and it will work fine. The relay is engaging when the motor decides not to work. I was wondering 2 things.
2.) In order to remove the trim motor, will I need to drain the hydraulic fluid, or is it contained regardless if the trim motor is installed or not. Thanks!!
I was pretty sure that the oil section of the trim system was completely separate from the motor itself, but just wanted to double check. I will likely tilt the motor all the way up, lock it in the up position, and remove the whole TnT for ease of trim motor install. [links]
Imagine a beautiful sunny day boating on the water. For many people, that’s a day in paradise. But there will be trouble in paradise on the day that your tilt trim function stops working. You’ll quickly discover that the tilt trim function impacts everything from on-the-water boating performance and fuel efficiency to safeguarding propellers from damage in shallow water.
If your tilt trim function isn’t working, there are several things you’ll need to investigate to determine the problem. It could be with the battery, solenoid/starter relay or tilt trim motor.
