I have twin Bravo 1s and Faria guages for trim indication. The guages work intermittently.......
What is most likely the problem?
Thanks.

Could also be the wires are corroded. Replace the sending units, simple and only $80

I agree, probably senders, round modules on top sides of outdrive. Sort of a wiper effect sender, just two screws to take them off.

glad you think simple to replace...25 years doing this...easy for me but without the right tools and exp. not easy or simple....requires disassembling the transom bell housing(waiting for you to say splice them in..will only live a short time)

OK I will agree. If you have done it before its simple. It really is
No I would never splice a line, that's why you buy the complete kit.

If you can get it off and apart, clean it thoroughly and fill with di-electric grease. This has worked well for me. Note where it is before loosening the screws.
