Stuck Drive in Trailer Position
We'll try this one again. My Bravo 1 stuck in the up position this week end. Switchs all seem to work and the pump is running and sounds normal but the drivr won't move. I was told if the pump is running it should be o.k..... Not sure I'm sold on that info. Anyone have any thought??? Been a bad weekend for boating! Starter went out Friday night, Drive stuck on Saturday plus my sending unit for my oil pressure gauge went bad! I guess I all three strikes in two days! Never had a problem with the boat till this. Guess I was over due.

My father-inlaw's boat did the same thing after setting up in the trailer position for a year. A mechanic came by and reversed the hydraulic lines and then it came down. He then put them back and it works normally now. The system uses lots more pressure to raise the drive than it does lowering it. Dont know if this is a safe thing to do but it worked for him.
