One of my drives won't stay trimmed, keeps wanting to creep up. It makes for a miserable ride at high speeds.
I have replaced the entire pump, and looked over everything.
Any suggestions?

Steve,
Leaking seal in a ram, air in the lines, water in the lines?
Aren't you getting good support from who ever sold you these? This is why I like to at least help on the installation of these drives. You should be able to call the supplier and get some help with this problem.
I would strongly suggest you Call Fred at Konrad 800-927-3545. He's always helpful and I'm sure he'll replace anything that is defective.
If you still need help or you want to get this fixed this weekend give me a call. I have Konrad spares on the shelf but I'm sure it's something simple.

Fionn, Thanks for the reply. I have looked everything over, note that this is brand new set-up. When I got the boat back from the rigger the trim buttons worked in reverse, so I switched the lines. I'am now starting to wonder if I should have only switched the wires? I need a hydraulic line & wire diagram.
Thanks Steve

Yep, you should have switched the wires. The blue wire is up (high pressure)
