I had the same issue a couple years ago. There was a tiny nick on the flare of one of the pressure lines. Only leaked when the trim switch was pushed. Only a drop or 2, but over the course of the day it would make a mess in the bilge. Try taking the lines loose and looking for some evidence of a cracked fitting, or other type of seal issue. Where those pumps are mounted, they get bumped often and can develop small leaks. FWIW..

Thanks, I'll give the flares on the lines a close look,I am convinced it is probably something I am overlooking or not seeing.
