Default Trim/Tilt System Problem(s)

Two questions about Trim/Tilt System on TRS--

1) The wires from my Trim/Tilt/Trailer switches go thru a balck box under the dash--about the size of a cigar box. What is housed in htat box? Mech said some relays that he jumpered around but I can't find his jumper wires and there about 10 super-small screws that hold box togehter. Before I kay on that non-skid floor pincushion for too long does anybody know about that "box"?

2) The trim pump is pumping solid oil on one side (up) and Aerated (filled with bubbles) and/or light brown fliud with lots of air on the other side (down). What the heck is that caused from ?

Thanks

Poorsche

Black box may be Merc's "dual engine power trim control panel". Trims both drives w/ single switch.Helps your tie bars from being turned into pretzels.
