Description Yamaha F200 to F300 Trim Motor (up to 2019)

Overview

The trim motor is the electric motor that powers the hydraulic lift system on your YAMAHA / MERCURY outboard motor. It drives the hydraulic pump that supplies pressure to the trim cylinders, allowing you to adjust the motor’s angle while underway or to raise it out of the water.

Recommended operating conditions

This trim motor is intended for use on outboard motors in a marine environment. It must be installed in the dry conditions of the trim housing, protected from direct immersion. Before installation, it is essential to verify compatibility using the motor’s serial number. The electrical connection must respect the original polarity to prevent damage. Light lubrication of the contacts is recommended during installation.

Technical Benefits

  • Complete restoration of the electrical operation of the hydraulic trim circuit
  • Resistance to vibrations and mechanical shocks inherent in marine use
  • Protection of the windings against moisture thanks to the original housing
  • Guaranteed compatibility with the original outboard motor connectors and mountings
  • Simple replacement, without modifying the existing wiring

Usage and maintenance tips

  • Check the condition of the brushes and commutator before replacing the entire motor: sometimes only the brushes are worn
  • Rinse and dry the trim housing before installation to prevent premature corrosion
  • Use dielectric grease on electrical connectors to prevent oxidation
  • Operate the trim system several times after installation to bleed air from the circuit
  • Periodically check the hydraulic fluid level in the trim reservoir

FAQ

How do I know if my trim motor is faulty?

Several symptoms indicate a trim motor failure: no response to trim controls, slow or intermittent operation, unusually loud noise during operation, or the motor failing to hold the raised position. Before replacing the motor, check the circuit fuse and the condition of the trim relay.

Can you replace a trim motor yourself?

Replacing a trim motor is a task that a DIY boater with some knowledge of marine electromechanics can handle. Be sure to disconnect the battery before beginning any work, identify the original electrical connections, and observe the correct polarity when reassembling. It is essential to verify proper operation at the end of the procedure.

Should the hydraulic fluid be replaced when changing the trim motor?

Replacing the trim motor alone does not necessarily require changing the hydraulic fluid, as the motor is not in direct contact with the hydraulic system. However, this is a good opportunity to check the fluid level and condition and to replace it if it is dirty or contaminated.
