Hope that Trim-Indicators and -senders stand for Electronics too, so it
will be the right group here for my question:
Mercruiser's trim-sender is a potentiometric one with a down-resistance
of 10 Ohms and an up-resistance of 167 Ohms. Does anybody know, whether
this 157 Ohm-difference is a fraction of a built-in standard-poti with a
full-angle of 270°? If it is a fraction only, then the max. poti-value
over a range of 270° should be about 850 Ohm, because trim/tilt (max) is
about 50°. Or is the built-in poti a special one with a max. angle of
the said 50° + some additional degrees for "mechanical" security?
Appreciating any contribution,
bye, Hajo
