HELP! Outdrivie trimming up on its own
 
HELP! Hey everyone. Out boating today, my stbd out drive is trimming up on its own. Soon as I turn the key it starts going up until it gets to the limiter. Ended up happening mid-trip from lunch. I pulled the fuse for the throttle trim control and it still does it. Ended up disconnecting the wiring from the trailer switch and that got me back to the marina. Boat is a 292 formula fastech. Any input welcome, hope my weekend isn't shot.

Might be the up solenoid on the trim pump.
