sounds like its hydraulicly locked up/ it does happen to those units if not trailered correctly. there is a trick to repairing it that you can do. remove the valve that is located at the bottom left side of the unit but first put the engine on the tilt lock on the engine after you remove the valve put a 1/4 x 20 nut in the housing flat with the vale in the bottom of the opening and reinstall the balve that you removed. that will relieve the pressure on the valve. remove valve and the nut and reinstall the valve you may lose some fluid soo you may need to top off when finished

Over due update. I replaced orings and seals in trim and tilt. The scraper seals were complete toast. Took a minute to get it bled. After multiple cycles there was still lots of air that wouldn't bleed. I loosened the manual release valveand was able to get the rest of the air out. Works like a champ.
