Well, everything is constant when I hear it. I do notice my electrical circuits (radio goes quiet, lights dim (if on)) when I trim the motor. Do yours? But, I'm not trimming when this happens. I'm probably going out on the lake again tonite, I'll have to investigate where exactly it's coming from.
I wonder if there's a stuck float switch, switching the bilge on/off and it's running while dry? There's no water down in there to switch it on/off. Hmmm... like I said, I'll look tonite when I go out on the lake. I was on the lake for 3 hrs last night after work. I try to get out on it as often as I can.

Update... My navigation and anchor lights do dim slightly while I trim. I noticed this last weekend while we were out at dusk. I don't think it is a problem, though-I think it is just that the trim motor has a large current draw. Did you look in to your lights dimming any more?
