Hi all,

im Having an issue with my trim tabs not working.
the motor runs but the tabs don’t move.

first of all I would like to determine what type of system I have. I know my gauges and switch are Bennett, but the HPU doesn’t look like any Bennett system I saw online.

does anyone know what model HPU this is?

Thanks

Patrick

Yes there is oil in the reservoir. It’s just under the line so should be ok.
i can hear the solenoids click whenever I press the buttons.
I still have to make some more detailed troubleshooting; but In the meantime I wish to see what model of HPU I have since it’s not like anything else I’ve seen online.

You should email the pic to Pete at PHMarine, he's the main man for Bennett's in the UK.

no idea what it is and tbh I wouldn't care! it's just a pump after all, could be anything.
Was it working before and stopped now?
can you undo one of the two nuts securing/compressing the small hose to the HPU? any oil coming out when you instruct the tab to go down?
if in the water, any oil on the water surface after playing with them?
 
I found out that the old pump is discontinued “Quality line by Volvo penta”.
The solenoid valves were working erratically and no replacements are available. I now replaced it with a Bennett pump and the system is so much quicker now.
