Bravo 1 Gets stuck when going down or lowering unit
Bravo 1 unit. Boat in salt water, lives on lift. 2 years of usage . 100 hours.
This year I was on an extended trip and the boat has been sitting on a trailer since April (it was cleaned and rinsed well b4 its long nap). The lower unit was stored in a down position (maybe 5-8 on smart gauge). Batteries fully charged. The unit goes up all the way no problem. Lowering it sticks at 10-7. If I jump on it and some works the switch it will go down all the way. Then you can bring it up and down and no sticking.
....leave is sit for a couple of hours and same problem same solution.
Before I put it in the water for the winter season here (Florida) I would like to fix this...any solutions, b4 I replace anything. Oh yes fluids are full and connections are good.
Thanks,
