My taps is stuck at 8. When i push the up or down button, I can hear the relay clicking underneath the dash but no noise from motor. The motor has plenty of fluid but is very hot to the touch. So I unplugged the motor and just boated for the evening stuck on 8. So, it seems like power is getting there, but motor is not moving. Is the motor shot, relay messed up, any ideas?

sounds like pump motor to me -
Seems like the pump motor is shot since it's very hot. Ours doesn't get hot. The motor & actuators are made for Tige by Bennett Marine, bennetttrimtabs.com, FL - 954 427-1400, hydraulic power unit - V351HPU1, Dexron III. The standard V351HPU1 has 2 ports to control 2 trim tabs, so plugging one side will work with the single trim tab on our boats. Give Bennett Marine a call, they were very helpful.Comment

I called Bennett Marine and did all of the hot wiring to the right prongs. The solenoid and motor just got hot. I am guessing that I got water in the pump when my ballast check valve was leaking. It took about a month for it to rust and freeze up.Comment

Mine is stuck at 1. I can also hear it clicking, but haven't had a chance to investigate further.Comment
