No Mechanic here, but my first thought is whether there is hydralic fluid in the system or not. Also, what about the pump that pumps the fluid, and from there I would suggest the interface of the motor to the pump. Then I'm all out of ideas.

that is a start, thanks. i am going to start on it this weekend cant miss too many weekends at the lake.
check the fluid and the manual release valve. If they are OK it sounds like a bad pump
thanks for the info. if it was low on fluid would i check it and fill it if needed in the cap on the trim pump. the manual release works good that is how i got my motor up.
Hey..........Be careful when checking the fluid. I'd DEFINITELY talk to a mechanic first.
I know you're only supposed to add fluid with the motor up? or is it down. I know you can damage it if you're not careful.

should be all the way up to check fluid. If it is full and still won't go I would check the drive gear on the trim motor to make sure it is turning the pump. If thats good you probably have a bad pump
