Q: What are the symptoms of a failing trim position sensor?
A: Common signs include erratic or non-responsive trim gauge readings, inability to adjust trim angle, or error codes related to the trim system. If your gauge shows incorrect positions or doesn't move at all, the sensor may need replacement.

A: Trim position sensors typically last many years under normal conditions. Replace the sensor when you notice faulty readings, physical damage, or corrosion. Regular inspection during routine maintenance is recommended.
