Have the standard trim tab switch with the LED's.
- When I got the boat they both worked, verified out of water and in water...
- When engine was replaced, got it back and realized the port trim tab no longer worked, the one all the way up led still lights up, but the tab does not move and the other led's do not light up
- Stbd tab and leds work like normal.
Usually a fuse is the first place, but I'm assuming it's one fuse for both tabs right? Where would you start on this one ?

The first place I would look is at your ignition switch there is a wire that has to go from the control box to the switch, the screws are small on the back of the switch, and the wire is small, may have come lose. It will not work unless that wire is connected. The second is the actuator. test at the terminal block behind your new engine. You will find both actuators are wired up there. it could be somewhat concealed by the black outer tubing.Boat Name : -
