[QUOTE="thill, post: 511841, member: 4972"] Calling the MFG or finding a wiring diagram via Google search is the best idea. Typically, the black will be ground and the red will be power, but blue can be anything. Is there a green wire somewhere, maybe cut off short? With many trim units, + power to blue is up (Blue to the sky) and + power to the green is down. (Green to the grass) Look for a green wire somewhere. If I could not find any kind of info, and it's only those three wires, I would probably ground the black and touch the red to + power for just an instant and see what happens. If the motor turns, I would see which direction it goes. Then I would touch the blue to positive for just an instant. If it makes a big spark, STOP. But if it turns the motor in the opposite direction, there you go. Either way, be careful, and I hope you figure it out. [/QUOTE]
