Decided to re-bed my trim tabs. In the process I found that my starboard trim tab will not raise once it's lowered.
Since both cylinders had slight leaks, I replaced both. Unfortunately, that didn't resolve the problem with the starboard side.
I can hear the hydraulic pump activate for both up and down. But the tab will not raise once it's been lowered. I have to open the hydraulic line and allow the cylinder to "spring" up.
I think I know where this is going, just looking for confirmation. I suspect the retract side of the pump solenoid is stuck. This is a 2002 Bennet pump.
