I have a Mercury 225 EFI and the trim will go up just fine but will not go down on any of the switches. When I hit the down button it is clicking in the motor. I am thinking maybe a solenoid or relay????

Every once in a while it will go down.

Switched relays and it did the opposite. Replaced the bad relay and the first couple times I hit the trim switch it didn't work. About the third or fourth time it started working and hasn't quit yet so I am hoping it is good to go.
