Outdeive not raising on my stingray 185

[Sammyg101]

When I push the button on the back of the the 2010 stingray 185, the outdrive will raise about 12” then stop and won’t go higher.

Maybe it’s the hydraulic fluid since the boats been sitting 2 years. Where do I add more fluid? What type do I need

Telling us WHICH Volvo drive you have would be helpful.

Any ideas?

Hydraulic fill on transom inside boat. Looks like an SX drive. Recommend you track down an Owners Manual...

Get a package of orings their probably all hard and weeping fluid. CAREFULLY remove fitting nuts. Or get someone who knows how to remove and replace the orings. Thats an old drive. Replace all the fluid.

That’s an SX-A drive so the trim pump is inside the starboard side of the transom mount outside the boat.

How do I get to it?

It’s right there, move the outdrive to the port side & look inside!
