If you are not able to troubleshoot and resolve yourself, personally i would reach out to an authorised dealer for the make of your motor.  More often than not the mechanics working there will know your motor far more intimately than an independent generic marine mechanic and will probably hone in on the specific problem faster.  In general, my experience with independents generic marine mechanics has not been positive, and not any cheaper either.

You could always do a quick google search for reviews to see which of the authorised dealers are good (and not so good), and go from there.

Use this as an opportunity to build a rapport with your selected dealer, and watch your loyalty paying off in the long run (favours, discounts, etc).

 

Good luck with getting it sorted.

( same motor) . Take your fuse box cover off . Top middle you will see where your back trim connection is . ( unplug it) . If this fixes issue get a new back trim tilt button . Only 2 screws pull out re connect . Doesn’t effect your front trim at all.
