Default Trim Tab gauge

I have a 1999 baja 252, with dual ram trim tabs, with the indicators.
the first LED is allways on, and as you put the tabs down the left side shows, but the right never moves?

any ideas? the tabs both move. i checked by looking at them just not the guage.

Need to know if they are bennett's. If they are, you have the old style Trimdicator, it will never work properly. Bennett is a great company, and if you call their tech support you will get one of the owners on the phone. Unfortunately there may not be much they can do to fix the old style, but the new indicator is sweet. You will have to remove 2 of the rams(1 each side), and wire it up to the front since the transducer is in the rams, but worth it if you are going to keep those tabs, mine has worked flawlassly in the florida sun and salt for 3 years now.
