## 🔌 Function

The trim sender converts the physical position of the outboard into a variable electrical signal for the analog trim gauge. This allows the operator to monitor the engine's bow-down, normal running and bow-up trim positions from the helm.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Trim gauge remains at full up or full down
-   Gauge reading does not match the physical engine position
-   Erratic or intermittent gauge movement
-   Dead spots through part of the trim range
-   Damaged, broken or corroded sender wiring
