1976 SRV 220 - where's the tilt control?

[LeisureTime]

My first post & I'm a complete boat newbie...

Anyone have picts of instrument panel on '76 srv 220 or can tell me where the tilt control is on this model boat? The lettering of the controls has worn away. I do not see any tilt/trim controls on the throttle handle.

So far, I've been unable to determine which control is suppose to control the tilt. (I will try the whole jumping the tilt motor thing but I would like to be sure I've actually found the tilt control...finding that relay is another issue).

I have found one control switch I think is the tilt control, I can hear a clicking when press it one way or the other. Relay? Battery is fully charged.

I sure will appreciate any help.

Thanks!

mine is 3 buttons two for up one for down and it is down on the fiberglass on the port side of the wheel.

Yes I have the three button design also.. Bottom one is down, top one is up (only to the trim limit if the position switch works correct on the drive) and hold the middle and top button for trailer(all the way up)..
I have seen the toggle switch though also..Have somebody hit the pump when you try the switch..The pumps stick alot when they are old. Also if it is that switch it should be a momentary type switch(you have to hold it up or down)..If it is not than it is the wrong switch..

Should be the three button control on the port side of the steering wheel

I'm a bit foggy on this ,by the gauges you have an OMC drive,which also is probably a "stringer drive".Which may only tilt the drive to trailer and may not have a trim adjustment.Later stringers had a front engine mount that telescoped so the whole engine and drive trimmed.Look at the drive if its got a big rubber boot surrounding it,its a stringer.

The tilt/trim on my 1976 220 hard top is located to the right of the stering wheel. you should see three black button type push switches...........the one on the bottom trims the outdrive down.............you MUST PUSH THE TOP AND MIDDLE BUTTONS at the SAME TIME to trim up..........hope this helps
