[QUOTE="bigbrad123, post: 172650, member: 806"] Backed my boat in to get it ready today (finally). Was gonna put in the batteries and start it up. Tilted the motor down and then went to work switching batteries. Hooked up new battery and all of a sudden my tilt won't work. Noticed a fuse blown for the bilge. No idea if that was recent but switched that out. Hooked it up just like before. Everything else works except motor tilt. Figured it's probably a fuse but can't find any that appear to be blown. Its not making a sound whether I use the tilt on the motor or the throttle, like it's not even getting power to it. I'm still convinced it's a fuse somewhere that I am missing. Any other ideas? Not a lot of experience with boats. And unfortunately the motor is all the way down so not sure I can take it anywhere as I think I'll scrape ground with it. [/QUOTE]
