Unit is a 8FGU25.

It has no tilt back. If you rev the motor and tap the tilt lever forward then pull it back, it'll tilt back but not all the way. You can keep doing that and eventually reach max back tilt. Forward tilt works completely fine.

I talked to my service manager and he said it's the buttons on the control valve for the tilt spool. I swapped those out (the red wire was damaged), put the control valve back in, and still no tilt back. Everything else works just fine.

Anyone have any ideas?
