Hi Folks, Thanks for your input. This model VolvoPenat outdrive does not have any solenoids. Through relays, the motor wires are reversed to run the outdrive up or down. There are just two wires connected to the hydralic pump motor. A GRN/WHT and a BLU/WHT. The motor is fully insolated from system ground. Connecting these two wire directly to a battery causes the outdrive to go up or down, depending on voltage polarity. Reverse the battey connection and the outdrive goes the opposite way. By direct connection, I can make the outdrive travel up or down full range and the trim indicator reads correctly. My problem is not with the motor. At the helm there is a three pushbutton switch assembly (UP, DOWN and BEACH) that has 5 wires connecting to a big harness of wires. When it was working properly, the DOWN would cause the outdrive to go down throughout the full range. The UP would control the outdrive through a small, limited range such that the cooling water intake (mounted on the outdrive) was always under water. If you wanted to lift the drive out of the water (to trailer and/or beach the boat) you have to push both the UP and BEACH together to get full up travel. I think the indicator has circuits that control the limited range because there are no limit switches on the outdrive. There are 10 wires going to the indicator. At the helm, these pushbuttons control two relays. These two relays control two other relays which are located at the pump. The wire harness for just the outdrive has 23 wires leaving the helm and running to the indicator and aft to the pump. It would be much easier to troubleshoot if I had a schematic. I was hoping someone could steer me towards some documentation that is detailed. As I said before, the wiring diagram that came with the unit is more of a pictorial, not any real, usable details. I'm hoping that by posting my problem and keeping it alive, I can scare up some info. The pictorial has labels on various wires that are in some kind of Volvo/Penta code. Wires that go through a connector change color which is a real pain to understand. A wire that is WHT can change to BLU/RED when passing through a connector. Again, thanks for your input. I am still feeling hopeful that the right person will read this posting. Regards, Stas, aka FishinPole
