Trim tabs, one works

I haven't done much troubleshooting yet other than pressing the button on the seasons maiden voyage and realizing only the port side works and makes any operating noise. Are there any known issues to look for with the Lenco tabs with led indicators? I'm thinking a bad splice or connection.

    Find the connection at the stern and you can just hot jump it to the battery, then you'll know if it is dead or a wiring issue.

    I am hoping it's not the actuator. Only one of the transom mounting bolts is under water. I would have to get creative with weight distribution to avoid hauling the boat.

    .....run your gas, water and waste down and put some linemen on the front.

    I saw a destroyer class ship used for shipping fruits (needs to be fast). The prop seal was leaking, it was in the ship yard and they winched the bow down so far the prop was out of the water to work on it. Impressive!
