Our boat has twin 300 Mercury Verados. While cruising the starboard motor trimmed itself all the way up. I turned off the motor right away and hopefully saved the impeller. However, after that it won’t trim at all up or down (at the helm control or the one back by the motor). Additionally every 2-3 min it tries to trim up again. I turned off the batteries, still does it. Disconnected the stbd battery, still does it. I guess the trim runs off the house bank. Because the only way I could get it to stop was disconnecting the house bank. One strange thing also. When it’s trimming by itself every few minutes if I hit the down trim on either the helm or the rear controls it stops the pump. Doesn’t move the motor but seems to negate the signal it’s getting. So…how do A) troubleshoot this. B) disconnect the starboard trim pump someone so I can at least use the house batteries and use the boat until I can figure this out. C) manually? Trim down the motor? Thanks for the help!
