This was excellent!!! Thank you for posting! I have a 2012 Yamaha VMAX 175 HPDI that this will work on. I figured I could possibly do it without having to remove the entire unit and your video makes me have complete confidence to now do it. I loved the detail of every step. Well done, sir! Thanks again!
Awesome Video! The only video I could find that was really helpful. I have a 2015 225 SHO. I think I can do this now. I appreciate everyone's comments. I'll be sure to use PB Blaster first on the bolts.

Hi - You have a talent for demonstrating and teaching - great work! Thanks and I’m now a new subscriber. I have a 2022 Yamaha f200 four cylinder and the trim has never held the motor up for long. It used to take a day or two for it to drop. Now it drops from half way up to down in half an hour. I took it back to the dealer a few times for the issue to be fixed, and they would tell me it’s fixed, but it never was. Would you have any idea if this is a common thing with new Yamaha outboards, and (if so) which parts do I need to replace? I’m comfortable doing the work myself as it seems the only way to get it done competently. Thanks again for your great style.
Thank you Pauly for your positive comments. I would check the manual release valve condition and confirm the motor only leaks on the center rod and not the 2 small ones (trim rods), if that is the case it’s usually related to a bad seal in the tilt center rod piston, for that you have to remove the unit and remove the center piston, it’s a big job, and while you’re inspecting that black “O” ring in the inside piston, also inspect the cylinder walls for a vertical scratch which will cause the center rod to slow leak down. Hope this helps. Take care.👍🏻
Good video, explained very well. I have the same unit on my f115. It stopped working, I found a nick in the wire at top of transom height. Water had gotten down the wire and corroded the brush connection (circuit breaker one), yes there is a circuit breaker there. Unfortunately 3 of the bolts snapped trying to undo, so I can verify they are dry, and stainless and alloy don't go well. Currently spraying and let it sit for a while (unit is out), any recommendations with type of spray to seep in and loosen, fortunately the head snapped off and I still have some thread to grip?
Just followed the entire video, wired the green and blue onto outboard. Went to use trim switch and the ram i lowered with a RAG isn't going up or down. I hear the new trim motor working, but it's not moving the ram arm. Any idea?
OMG time to start drilling and get some metric helicoils. 😩, remember to put a rag or masking tape on the pump opening to avoid metal shavings falling in. Thank you for watching. Good luck
Same here mate, the 3 that are exposed on the ends. I'm trying to soak a bit with CRC spray. while the new motor turns up. I think I'll have to drill them out too.

Hi Richard, I use PB Blaster. It works, takes a while to zip through but works. Thank you for stopping by. Take care 👍🏻
Excellent video
Thank you very much!. Really appreciate the good comment. Take care.👍🏻
Thank you
You're welcome. Thank you for watching.

Make sure the weight of the motor is on the ram, you have enough fluid in reservoir and manual release valve is close. Thank you for watching. 👍🏻
Hi sir im new subs here. I change trim motor. But now the motor is working. But no up and down. Pls help whats wrong. Thank you
Hi. Did you ensure you filled the fluid and bled by raising and dropping fully a few times?
What is the model number of the trim motor
Yamaha have an exploded view of the parts with the OEM part numbers
Doing mine today, 3 of 4 trim motor bolts snapped, now what?

@@us4marine I just drilled strait through and, through bolted them, works great now and should make it a little easier next time around.

@@parton45852 Did you manage to save the thread or did you use smaller bolts and nuts?
@@richardpickersgill3434 no I did not save the threads, just drilled straight through and used smaller bolts and nuts with lock washers.
