went to go for a ride earlier,pulled away from the dock,hit jackplate down switch.It wouldn't go down.Did some testing after I got home seems the down relay decided to take a crap on me.If I jump the 2 big posts it will work.So the question is ;is this a special relay I can get only from Bob's or can I get one from one of my parts suppliers?

Most automotive ones work fine unless you're in salt water.

Im pretty sure a merc trim solenoid will fit perfect.

Are you sure its not just the button? Did you try jumping the wires that go to the switch?

I appreciate all the responses,it's not the button,I have the turnsignal style jack & trim levers on each side of wheel and buttons in back for transport purposes.
Just bought another complete jackplate identicle to one on boat,so I have parts untilI can get another relay.Just gotta take sometime in A.M. to change it out.Thanks.
